A riotous comedy play with a dark twist, never before heard original songs and far too much lycra, from Richard Kieswick & Jamie Beamish
CAT The Play returns to The Wardrobe Theatre after a sell-out run last year. Enjoy the dark comedy tale of Dave The Cat’s backstage journey from Jesus’s Donkey to his shock dismissal minutes before the opening night of the original production of Cats. A blow our mysterious performer has never quite recovered from.
First performed at the Edinburgh Fringe where it played to packed houses, CAT The Play has been a smash hit in the UK, Ireland and Germany, broken box office records on the London Fringe and sold out every return to Edinburgh! In 2017, CAT The Play made its West End debut at London’s Ambassador’s Theatre to critical and popular acclaim.
“An absolute riot! …I actually thought I was going to hyperventilate, just remembering it makes me laugh. It was so funny. Far too wonderful.”
Elaine Paige (Musical Theatre Legend), BBC Radio 2
“An amazing piece of theatre!! ..that enthralled and fascinated, entertained and horrified in equal measure .. The pace is so intense that you get sucked in as the narrative pounds along; fooled by the entertaining stories, the anecdotes, the gags, the irreverent songs until there’s no escape.”
