It’s our 10 year anniversary! To celebrate, we are creating a CATNIP company of players and also reading the play that started it all, Dick & Jayne Get A Life by CATNIP co-founder, Peppur Chamber.
DICK & JAYNE will be read live, virtually via Zoom, with CATNIP actors of past and present productions.
Written by Peppur Chambers
Directed by Peppur Chambers
An Unfunny Funny Comedy
With his already horrible comedy career on the line due to a failed relationship, Dick’s manager implores him to find the funny or never come back to the comedy club. Dick feels he can only be funny if he has a girlfriend. Enter Jayne. Pregnant by asshole Alex, broke, scared and faced with a decision, she is on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Jayne finds comfort in the warped, gallant arms of Dick and Dick finds comfort in the symmetry of their names. Together, Dick & Jayne Get A Life.
