LONDON, UK (www.catdseigners.co.uk) - CatDesigners had two tracks from their album,
Strange Little Creature, selected to be featured in a play, "Starving Necrophilia," at the Pleasance Theatre in May.
The
writer and director of the play, Lisa Cagnacci, approached CatDesigners
to ask if they had any music suitable to feature at the beginning and
the end of the play. Nick Troop read the script while Lisa took copies
of both albums and both hit upon "Good Thoughts" and "Strange Gods" .
"I
felt 'Good Thoughts' was the most appropriate in terms of matching what
I sensed was the mood of the play," said Nick. "albeit that I had only
read the script and not actually seen the play. I suggested 'Strange
Gods' for the end of the play because some of the words at the end of
the script are actually echoed in the song. It was uncanny ... and more
than a little spooky."
"The last line from the
play is 'The gods are falling like rain. They know how' while the last
line from the song is 'Strange gods on my side. Sky high and falling.'
Almost too good to be true."
For anyone wishing to find out more, here is the text from the flyer. The ticket details are at the bottom of the page.

Necrophilia' a one-woman show performed by Molly Levine, written and
