Open-Door Playhouse Debuts 44 CATS in August
The play will be available online starting August 21 2024.
Open-Door Playhouse continues to present short plays in podcast form. The Playhouse is presenting a new play, 44 Cats, starting August 21 2024 online at http://opendoorplayhouse.org.
This new comedic play begins with three women and forty-four cats. Simple enough ingredients with which to launch a narrative, yes? Not so fast....
The cast includes Reyna Stephaaanie, Joyce Hananel, and Zelda Kimble. Yunyi Zhu directs.
James C. Ferguson is the playwright. The Massachusetts-based writer is the prolific author of a number of short plays, including OMG, Don't Jump the Gun, Lewis & Clark, Alexander the Great, The Wright Brothers, For Whom the Yell Tools, and many more. He directed and co-wrote an indie film, Happy Holidays, and served as a special effects technician on a number of feature films.
Founded by playwright and filmmaker Bernadette Armstrong, Open-Door Playhouse is a Theater Podcast- like the radio dramas of the 1940s and 1950s. The Playhouse launched on September 15, 2020. At the time, Open-Door Playhouse provided Playwrights, Actors and Directors a creative outlet during the shutdown. Since its inception. Open-Door Playhouse has presented Short and One-Act plays from Playwrights across the country and internationally. In 2021 Open-Door Playhouse received a Communicator Award for Content for the Play Custody and in 2023 the play What's Prison Like was nominated for a Webby Award in the Crime & Justice Category.
