Cat Head Theatre

What would "Hamlet" look like if it were performed by cats? Pretty damn good, in fact. Mr. John Over provides an excellent voice for the lead character, a Charlton Heston impression that is the envy of all. John Hoffhines provided valuable assistance as cat wrangler and composer, and the rest was up to the cats, who acted with the best thespians the stage has ever seen. This piece is available on the "God Hates Cartoons" DVD found at www.brightredrocket.com.

WE WANT MORE CAT HEAD THEATRE

[Tim Maloney]

Yeah, I do too. It's hard to find the time to make these! But there are several planned...

[Miriam Merritt]

I THINK THIS IS TERRIFIC.....HOW ABOUT SOME PLAYS? LEAR,MACBETH,RICHARD 3...

WE'D LOVE TO SEE THEM.

[Tim Maloney]

There is lots more planned! The Cat-Heads don't JUST do Shakespeare. They have made a Space Opera and have done some Victorian plays as well... plus there's an action TV show from the 80s they seem to have been involved in. Post and share! Encourage me, I desperately need it!

[Missmuffinmcgee]

Ok this is obviously awesome. Please make more if you get the time.

[Tim Maloney]

Yes, it's true! Many people have pointed that out. Dearest Round-Eye, (R.I.P.) was in fact a polydactyl blue calico! Rare all the way around. And a sweeter cat you will not ever find! As men often performed as women in Shakespeare's time, so do my female cats (for they are ALL girls in this video) play the parts of men.

Thanks for watching!

A laugh is always a benefit to mankind! It takes comedy to show how childish we are with even serious things in life. If politicians had the positive effect of Cat Head Theater, we would live in Utopia.

You need "Clelan Notes."  Ask Cockroach.

Better love story than Twilight

[Tim Maloney]

Thanks, visor!

[Tim Maloney]

Nope, that's just me.
