Out Of This World: SPACE DOGS: THE MUSICAL has lift-off in London

London audiences are set for a stellar adventure this summer as Space Dogs: The Musical blasts into The Other Palace Studio for a limited run from 28 July - 9 August.

The epic, mind-bending new musical uncovers the unbelievable-yet-true story of Laika, a stray dog from Moscow, and the mysterious Chief Designer, the top-secret Soviet scientist who sent her into orbit during the Cold War Space Race.

Written and performed by Nick Blaemire and Van Hughes, and directed by Will Blum, this unique rock musical docu-comedy is a two-hander unlike any other with Hughes and Blaemire playing and singing every role. From Laika and the Chief Designer to high-ranking politicians, covert scientists, and an entire pack of 40 Russian space dogs, the two actors shift seamlessly between characters in this thrilling, fast-paced theatrical feat.

A sweeping tale of invention, betrayal, political intrigue, and the immortal bond between man and dog, Space Dogs: The Musical takes audiences on a kaleidoscopic journey from the launch pads of earth to the stars above.

Producers Paul Taylor-Mills and Tricia Small shared their excitement: “Bringing SPACE DOGS to London and to The Other Palace - feels like the perfect next chapter for this wildly original show. Nick and Van have created a theatrical universe that is as hilarious as it is heartfelt.”
