The Snoopy Question
What happens when a man starts to think that dogs have the answer to all our problems? Starts to think he is a dog? What are dogs really like? What are people really like? Is it time for you to find your inner dog? Join Matt Black for a shaggy dog story and joyful entertainment with cheap props, surprising dog facts, excellent poems, and Snoopy’s answer to world peace.
Comedy, science and poetry collide!
