CATS ON PARK AVENUE (1989) w/ Garfield & Friends pre-show @ 6:30 pm
April 23 : 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
“The most bonkers film I’ve seen in ages. A film about Shibuya streetcats that’s beyond exuberant and ridiculous.” – Karamashi, Letterboxd
Combining adorable street-cat footage, ultra-’80s musical sequences, strange animated interludes, and teen melodrama, CATS ON PARK AVENUE is a singular pop-art fantasia. Amid the winding back alleys of Shibuya, where cats roam the rooftops, a group of young dancers prepare for a stage musical based on those very street cats! Featuring synth-tastic City Pop bangers, such as the self-explanatory “We Love Cats!,” CATS ON PARK AVENUE is a day-glo dream packed with nearly as much candid cat footage as dialogue.
Come out early for a pre-show devoted to everyone’s favorite lasagna-munching Monday-loathing feline, Garfield, starting at 6:30 pm.
