You pawsitively won't want to miss Catbaret, a cat-themed variety show at Caveat in the Lower East Side. This purrfect variety show features comedy, burlesque (actually purr-lesque) and music in celebration of all things feline. For the Halloween edition on Friday, October 31, come in your most "cat-tastic" costume for a chance to win the contest. The show's hosted by local cat lady Gemma Smith and includes free cat ears for all.
The lineup includes The Randy Andys, a post-modern Broadway vocal trio putting a feline twist on classic pop hits; Fem Appeal known for delightfully weird performances; Neysa Lozano with a live tarot performance piece; Joy Vicious as a Cheshire Cat; James Koroni, a cat-loving comedian; and Kinsey Three with a campy Cats mash-up. Stage kittens Jenny Purrson, founding executive director of the Cat Museum of NYC, and Amanda B., host/producer of the 6 Degrees of Cats podcast, will lend a hand—er, paw.
This year Weruva is sponsoring the show and donating $500 of product to Rescue NYC, which also provides adoptable cats to Koneko Cat Café right across the street from Caveat.
