Kitty Kitty Kitty by Noah Haidle
October 7, 2009, 7:00 P.M.
at The Gremlin Theatre

Kitty, a suicidal housecat, finds his true love in his clone, the first successfully cloned housecat, Kitty Kitty. They give each other hand jobs, but Kitty Kitty doesn’t love Kitty back. So Kitty decides to make another clone of himself, the title character Kitty Kitty Kitty. But something goes wrong in the cloning process, and he makes more copies of himself, each one more retarded than the last. The final clone, Kitty Kitty Kitty Kitty Kitty, communicates in nothing but grunts and yells and drool. Kitty Kitty Kitty is a comedy about love, unrequited love, regret and hand jobs.

Featuring: Andy Chambers, Matthew Glover, Grant Henderson, Erik Hoover, Christopher Kehoe, Carin Leonard-Gorrill, Natalie Novacek & Clarence Wethern

On a related note, Pro Rata’s current show Marisol is getting some great reviews.  The Star Tribune and the TC Daily Planet have praised the production. I saw the show on opening night, and it’s pretty intense. Go to Pro Rata’s website for more info: http://www.theatreprorata.org
