Hey there Bobby Dogs people,

I wanted to let you all know that I am doing a brand new Off-Broadway play called THE ORPHANS HOME CYCLE at the Signature Theatre in New York City. The show officially opened on Nov. 19, and the next day we were greeted with a big old rave review from the New York Times. Tickets are nearly impossible to come by since the word hit the street about our show. But I will update you with any news of extensions or transfers. It's really nice to be in a hit show. Here is a picture of me in one scene with Tony Award nominee Hallie Foote.

And here is a link to the New York Times review, written by the great Ben Brantley:

Happy Holidays to all,

Mike (Bobby Dogs) Boland

NO HOT DOGS AT THIS PARTY

The reviews are in and TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD up at Hartford Stage is a hit! "This is a terrific, polished and gripping production," said the Hartford Courant. "A delicate and affectionate production," says Variety.

In this photo, BOBBY DOGS co-stars Mike Boland and Dawn McGee celebrate at the opening night party for Mockingbird, which has already broken the Hartford Stage box office record.

Boland plays the villainous Bob Ewell in the production. For more information, see http://www.hartfordstage.org/.

BOBBY IS BACK IN HARTFORD

Hello again, BOBBY DOGS family and friends. Your loyal hot dog huckster is back on stage, once again in Hartford. Yes, Bobby's alter ego, Mike Boland, will be performing in the Hartford Stage Company's production of TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD, starring Matthew Modine as Atticus Finch. Mike will be playing Bob Ewell, who is probably not so nice as Bobby Tucker. Previews begin on Feb. 19. The official opening is Feb. 27 and the show closes on April 4. So come on up and show the producers that Mike's people travel (so they will keep hiring me!). All the best in the New Year! -Mike B.
