The Dalmatians rally all the dogs of London for a daring rescue of the puppies from Cruella and her bumbling henchmen.The show's adorable spotted dogs and larger-than-life villainess provide ample opportunities for creative costuming. With a highly expandable chorus, your stage could easily be filled with 101 budding performers. experience.
