Ella Veres to Present ON CATS AND DOGS AND OTHER FAMILY REVELATIONS at the 14Y Theater

For a limited time only, independent artist Ella Veres will present On Cats and Dogs and Other Family Revelations. The production is part of the 2024 New York City Fringe Festival with FRIGID New York at the 14Y Theater (344 E. 14th St, New York, NY 10003) with performances on April 8 (7:40pm), April 15 (7:40pm), April 16 (5:30pm), and April 21
(1:30pm).

The show will also be streamed online. Tickets ($25 or sliding scale) are available for advance purchase at https://www.frigid.nyc/event/6897:639/. The performance will run
approximately one hour. Each show is a different iteration.

On Cats and Dogs and Other Family Revelations wraps big ideas in focused stories about Ella's pets, offering glimpses of her human family and life in her place of birth, Transylvania, Romania. With her dark humor and heart, Ella takes audiences from her childhood under
communist rule, to her present quirky experiences in East Harlem, using her dog and cat as reference points.

The cast will feature Ella Veres and her companion dog, Pandele, who said she's in it not for fame, but to pay her vet bills. Rosamunda, her cat, was asked to perform but declined. She'd rather lounge under the sofa than be in the limelight.

"Being from Transylvania, is expected of me to be creepy, so I oblige, from time to time, albeit not in Hollywood style," said Ella Veres, lead performer and director of On Cats and Dogs and Other Family Revelations. "The war in Ukraine riled my memories up, and urged me to point out how much there is to lose." Ella Veres is an independent performer and writer who has been active in the New York City cultural community since 2001. Her work has been presented at the Immigrant Theater Festival, Galapagos Art Space, Manhattan Theater Source, IWAS,The Field, Theater for the New City, The Moth, Stage Left, Bowery Poetry Club, Chashama, and her present incubator, Fountain House Gallery. For several years she focused on her visual art, but in 2022, serendipity made her act in Stories From
My Mother at the Theater for the New City, and thus reminded her how lovely it is to be in front of a live audience. Her current solo storytelling show, On Cats and Dogs and Other Family Revelations, was shaped during her 2023 Fountain House Gallery summer residency on Governors Island and in Adam Wade's Magnet Theater Solo Workshop.
