The Cat's Court Case of Ulthar (2026)

The Cat's Court Case of Ulthar (2026)

You can hire this show for your private event!


The Drayton Arms, 16/02/2026


After a few years doing mostly creepy shows (The Uncanny Things Trilogy; The Key of Dreams) I really wanted to do something fun.


It's a small-scale show, but one I really enjoyed writing and performing for the London Lovecraft Festival 2026. I'll let the marketing copy speak for itself:


“Honourable members of this court… and the prosecution.


"Apparently, I stole a dangerous book. The Necronomicon, did you say? My my, you’d have to be clever to steal that. And apparently, I then left it in a student bar for any idiot to find. Oh, someone did? I’m devastated, I’m sure.


"But this trial is absurd. As the defence will tell you, I am just a normal housecat - though an unusually handsome and cunning one - and all I want is to drink milk and walk free. Miaow.”


"We are recruiting for the trial of an (allegedly magic) cat. You will serve variously as magistrates, jurors, prosecution, defence, and the press, interviewing, debating, and bribing your way to victory - or even justice.


"Join this absurd interactive comedy court case, featuring Leo Doulton (as an arrogant cat), you (as the court and its officials), and a truly surprising amount of milk (as milk)."

Thank you for reading this.
