Blood on the Cat's Neck
''Blood on the Cat's Neck'' or ''Blood on the Neck of the Cat'' is an absurdist〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Torn Space takes on bizarre, unhinged ‘Blood on the Cat’s Neck’ )〕 1971 play originally written by Rainer Werner Fassbinder. It was first produced in Nuremberg under the title ''Blut am Hals der Katze''. It is sometimes subtitled ''Marilyn Monroe vs. The Vampires''.〔 In translation, it has been revived several times, including a six-month stint at the Trap Door Theatre in 1996 and then the Mercury Theater in Chicago.
The Chicago production of the play at the Trap Door Theatre under director Andrew Cooper Wasser starred Beata Pilch, Sean Marlow, Kristie Hassinger, Summer Chance, Eileen James, Valentine Miele, Michael Garvey, Bob Rusch, and others.〔 It was performed again in 2013 to mark the 20th anniversary of the theatre. Clive Mantle also once starred in a production of it.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Clive Mantle )〕 More recently the play has been put on in a Ian W. Hill production at the Torn Space Theater in which Gyda Arber starred as Phoebe the alien as a "voluptuous blonde in a torn dress", Danny Bowes as the cop, and Toya Lillard as the mistress.〔〔
==Plot==
The play visits the question of how an alien from space might view humanity; the alien in the play is an attractive woman named Phoebe Zeitgeist, an alien vampire〔 taken from a 1960s comic book. In this play, she is surrounded by horrible people at a cocktail party and learns how to speak from them.〔 The play has three sections: an opening section in which the main characters give monologues that reveal themselves; a second section in which Phoebe speaks one-on-one with these characters, picking up certain phrases from them; and the final section, in which Phoebe, using her limited vocabulary, repeats back "their aphoristic and self-justifying slogans",〔 with the other characters divided over whether she is smart or drunk.〔
