Listen in as Dave and Boris Kill the Cat playwright Rhys Luke, director Sophia DiPaolo, costumer Leah Davidowitz, and performers Tits Morality, Chloe Drohan, and Eliana Coe, discuss falling down rabbit holes, working on a show that features real people, queer horror, grotesque and disgusting mannerisms, drag & film noir, intergenerational cat trauma, & making everything larger than life.
“…there’s something so special about sending such a strong message, under the guide of comedy…to have audience members tell you is, ‘it was so funny, I laughed so hard,’ and then you know that they go home, and think a little bit more about it, and they realize what the show is really about…it’s such a joyful process, to work on something so meaningful, something so inclusive, and have a laugh while doing it…”
