Sorry I Killed Your Cat – 4*

Sorry I Killed Your Cat

Courtyard Theatre

Opening Night – 21 February 2017

“With a little polish, this has the makings of a five-star show”

 

Sorry I Killed Your Cat is one of those really pleasant surprises, a play that bills itself as ‘full of laughs’ and actually is. Tré Curran’s script is genuinely funny and clever, reminiscent of a classic farce but with a nifty modern day twist.

When Charlotte and James (Katherine Hartshorne and and Tré Curran) invite neighbours Lisa and Aaron (Annie Jones and Liam Harvey) for dinner, events become more and more ridiculous. Fuelled by copious amounts of alcohol, rivalries start to come out along with some hilarious misunderstandings … and eventually the truth about what really did happen to the cat!

There are plenty of gags throughout, both verbal and visual, which on the whole hit the mark. At times a little more pace and slicker interaction between the characters was needed, but this is something easily corrected as the show (hopefully) develops.

There were also a few times when delivery was a little stilted (first night nerves?) by some of the cast but this improved considerably as the show went on.

A nice little set (Karis Richards) and effective lighting (Liam Hynes) added to this being a remarkably good piece of theatre. It does go to show that you don’t need a massive budget or venue to put on something spectacular.

With a little bit of polish, this has the makings of a five star show deserving a much longer run. Catch it while you can.

‘Sorry I Killed Your Cat’

The Courtyard Theatre, Hoxton

21st-25th February, 7.30

 

When a new couple move in to a north London apartment block their neighbours are quick to invite them over for dinner, though not all is as it seems.

Sorry, I Killed Your Cat, is a hilarious piece of new writing about keeping up false appearances, broken relationships, alcohol and “accidentally” killing cats. Packed full of laughs, drama and dead animals!

It will leave you hoping that you never get invited to dinner party ever again.

The play was written by Lost Fragments Co-owner, Tre Curran. ‘Sorry I Killed Your Cat’ was originally performed as a one-off scratch performance to a sold-out audience at The Bread and Roses Theatre. We enjoyed performing the show so much we decided to bring it back for a longer run. We are now performing the Show at The Courtyard Theatre for a week run and are considering possible extended runs of the show in the future.

Lost Fragments Productions is a collaboration between actors Liam Harvey and Tré Curran. Formed originally as part of their training at the School of Arts, The University of Northampton. the pair decided to revive the company as a platform to create new and original productions.
