Catatonic (New York Theater Festival)

A darkly comic new one-act, Catatonic by Diego Rio Ortiz, premieres as part of the New York Theater Festival.

In this surreal and unsettling short play, a desperate man responds to a Craigslist ad to become a cat for a man and his daughter.

The production runs 35 minutes and is presented alongside another one-act in a 90-minute programme.

Directed by Chris Grubb and featuring Diego Rio Ortiz, Ana Radice-Morras, Patrick T. Feeney, Ruby Rodgers, Peter Hart, Sammy Schwartzman, and Kyle Douthy.
