The World Famous Popovich Comedy Pet Theater is playing in the afternoons at the V Theatre inside the Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood. It is a unique and hilarious show that features incredible cats, amazing dogs, and a host of other creatures. The Comedy Pet Theatre, while featuring the animals, is far more than just an animal show. It is an extravaganza of juggling, European-style comedy and circus arts. The ring-leader is Moscow Circus Superstar and Master Juggler Gregory Popovich. He, along with a couple of other assistants, performs in the show. It shows a great tradition of Russian Circus Arts, and while the animals have become the main focus of the entertainment, the show encompasses far more. It is a fun show to amuse the family in the afternoons.

Seeing the show is being able to see a lot of elements from a great circus tradition. It is a highly skilled troupe of performers that delight the audience with a full array of circus arts---some of these include: clowning, juggling, free-standing ladder, quick change, jump rope, and others. Added into this mix are, of course, the animals. The animals sell the show, and what we see, we love. It is impossible to not smile and feel a sense of joy when watching these animals do their tricks. We get to see all manners of dogs and cats performing within this small troupe.

It is a show that will surely delight people of all ages. Popovich has a list of credits that most performers would envy. He has appeared on every major talk show and has performed all over the world. The credits are so good in fact that one wonders why he is here performing in the afternoons...but ignore that and count yourself lucky---go and see him. It is a chance to see a world class act.

It is admirable to note that all of the animals were rescued from animal shelters. It has certainly taken a lot of time and effort to train these pets. There has to be an incredible talent to do this---especially with the cats. The most prominent question on the minds of the audience members after the show was, "How do you train a cat?" Which is understandable, because I have never had any luck teaching my cats to do anything. There are, however, books and DVD's which are available for purchase, if you really want to know the secrets.

The V theatre has continued to grow into a better and better venue for shows. The seating has improved, the stage has improved...it continues to grow and serve its products better. I hope that the show benefits from the mall's foot traffic and brings in lots of people. There are coupons for discounts on the show, so be sure to look for those. It is a fun and nice show for the entire family. It is delightful.
