As part of a Hatch residency at New Art Exchange, Ollie Smith has produced Cat In Hell, Olwen co-devises and performs in this work.

Cat In Hell is a performance about getting the cream and choking on it. Mr Mistoffelees from Cats meets Mephistopheles from Faust. It’s about sleek whiskers, snazzy pyjamas, conjuring tricks and confetti. It’s about having nine lives and wasting them all. It’s about being bagged up and waiting to drown. It’s about fate and fortune and luck and sleaze and shuffling about in the dregs. It’s about hell on earth.
