Watch a recorded performance of Alliance Theatre's production of Doctor De Soto.
By Idris Goodwin
Directed by Mark Valdez
Based on the book by William Steig
Produced in partnership with Seattle Children’s Theatre
 

Award-winning playwright Idris Goodwin brings William Steig's tale of wit, wisdom, and whimsy to the stage with an eye-popping blend of live-action, puppetry, music, and rhyme. Despite the sign outside stating that they do not treat predators, the De Soto family dentist practice takes pity on a suffering fox with a rotten tooth. But once he opens his jaws and they must step inside, they begin to rethink their decision. Full of excitement and laughter, this modern-day fable proves that even the smallest creatures can make a big difference with kindness and a little quick thinking.

Doctor De Soto ran on the Hertz Stage January 18 – March 2, 2025.
