Based on Russian author Mikhail Bulgakov's scathing 1925 satire Heart of a Dog, Robert Astle's play brilliantly recreates the story of a dog's-eye view of tyranny and social injustice. First performed in Belgium, Heart of a Dog has gone on to productions across the UK, Canada and the USA, receiving rave reviews everywhere it goes. Robert Astle's radio adaption of Heart of a Dog was also heard on CBC Radio.
