Ellie Rose Amit and Charlotte Pine’s comedy about cats includes grooming, a spot of the zoomies and plenty of needy behaviour. But the joke is that these are the traits of two demanding pet owners: overanxious Shira, who has confined Iris to life as a house cat, and the vain Arlan, who makes Jeffabelle do tricks for TikTok.
Produced by Leeds University’s Aireborne Theatre, and directed by Amit, it’s full of promise and proof that student performance – increasingly priced out of the fringe – is vital to the Edinburgh festival ecology.
