Cat Sith

Don't miss Cat Sith, a high impact outdoor spectacle, centred around a large acrobatic puppet of a Scottish wildcat and its pesky pursuer, at Lanternhouse this April!

Cat Sith

About Cat Sith

Sammie, Cat Catcher Extraordinaire, is on the hunt to capture the elusive wildcat. Equipped with a multitude of gadgets, gizmos and help from the audience, will Sammie succeed, or will our cat maintain its wildness?

Using physical comedy and improvisation, Ludic Acid has created an enthralling, accessible and multi-layered fusion of puppetry and acrobatics, exploring the disconnection from nature and relationships to climate change and the very real impending extinction of the ‘highland tiger’.

Please note that Cat Sith is an outdoor and walk about experience, suitable for all ages.

Cat Sith is presented by Ludic Acid as part of the Puppet Animation Festival programme.
