FUR BETTER OR WORSE
Written by Colin Donald
Directed by Laura Bradley
Synopsis
A play that looks at the joy of cat ownership; from the point of view of the cat (Felix). Felix maintains his cat aloofness and self-satisfaction towards his owner Toni but begrudgingly has to reveal his devotion when Toni's love life falls on hard times. Felix sees a likely saviour for Toni's broken heart in Robyn, a door-to-door saleswoman, but his plans have to involve a brutal bully of a dog and some self-sacrifice.
