Using Robert Darnton's book The Great Cat Massacre and Other Episodes in French Cultural History as a jumping-off point, adapter and director Mikalina Rabinsky has created a high-spirited hybrid of commedia, puppetry, satire, profane parody, and Story Theater. Divided revue-style into nine interrelated but self-contained scenes, the show chronicles an 18th-century Parisian workers' revolt in which overworked apprentices took revenge on their slave-driving masters by slaughtering "sackloads" of their master's better-treated pets: house cats. The three-person ensemble--Susan Payne, Michael Quinn, and Jay Reed--leap from white-faced clowning to mask work to outrageous burlesque with prodigious grace, power, and aplomb in this Black Cat Theatre production. Payne's solo performance of a cat-filled opera parody is laugh-out-loud funny.

I do what I can. Thanks for calling me in on these, they're a ton of fun.

An evening of multi-disciplinary performance that asks: What aren't we talking about? This will be an amazing, one-of-a-kind melding of dancers, actors, performance artists, musicians, and others, all united to address a very meaningful, evocative question.

Breakbone features dancers Jyl Fehrenkamp, Tabitha Faes, Tina Gillis, Molly Grimm, Atalee Judy & LeAnne Vancil in the new sextet "datastarve".
