Exit Commander Kitty

Vancouver is known for its lovely scenery and mild temperatures…..the other thing it SHOULD be known for is its live theatre.

This town is awash in talent and an insane variety of theatre companies producing cutting edge shows.

This one came across my desk this morning and I am very happy to help in its promotion.

Exit Commander Kitty runs Thursday October 9 through Saturday October 11 and Thursday, October 16 through Saturday October 18 at 8 pm at the Carousel Theatre Space, 1411 Cartwright St on Granville Island.

This production is brought to you by the TigerMilk Collective, and written by Stephanie Hayes and Lindsay Reoch.  

According to the press kit the play introduces us to ‘Commander Kitty’ a retiring “Army Entertainment Star” where she is ”at home making preparations for her own retirement dinner party. A veteran of a post-apocalyptic army, she is forced into retirement at the old age of 25. Her job was to keep the troops happy, which included song and dance, throwing parties and sexual favors—and she was an Army Star. Now that everything she was has been stripped away, who will she be?”

“Edgy, experimental and pushing the boundaries of the fourth wall, Exit Commander Kitty is an intimate and no-holds-barred portrait of a woman in the middle of an identity crisis. It includes cabaret, WWII war songs, pop culture, live video, and meta-theatre, all viewed through a political lens.”

If you have a chance and this sounds like your cup of tea, please check it out.
