New Owner

About the Show Knowing that puppies are the best medicine, Mabel adopts Bart from the animal shelter to help heal her widowed heart. But Mabel is old, and Bart is young, and not all love can last forever. Suddenly alone, Bart embarks on an urban odyssey of towering hot dog carts, menacing dog-nappers and junkyard camaraderie. A wistful, wordless journey from a dog’s point of view, New Owner melds tender puppetry with spellbinding animation to paint a poignant portrait of friendship, loss and new beginnings. Get a closer look at the puppets! 🐶📸 After every show, stick around for a puppetry demonstration by show co-creator and puppeteer Tim Watts. Then, head to the lower lobby for a photo op with the puppets and cast!
