Unzipping the Cat

3L Theatrics—Son of Warehouse

In a cautionary cat-sitting tale, as this reviewer knows all too well, Kevin Reid presents an earnest and heartfelt story about earning the trust and approval of Winston, a purrfectly sized Maine Coon.

Reid has a natural feel for the stage and, as a theatre blogger, has curated a tight 60-minute piece for anyone who has ever had a difficult conversation at the vet.

Part internal discovery, part adaptation, and part accommodating the potential destruction of his personal comic book collection after agreeing to become a short-term cat sitter, the unexpected moments are the ones to treasure.
