Description

The arched entryway of The Cat's Pajamas playhouse boasts four white marble columns, and the doors are intricately carved in ebony wood with caricatures of Comedy and Tragedy smiling haughtily out at passers by, their noses pierced with ornate silver knockers. Green marble steps lead up to the doors from a smooth stone walkway, and on occasion when the doors open, they give a glimpse of the large, lavishly decorated foyer within.

A balcony sweeps all the way around the second floor of the enormous manor home, and three doors, of the sliding glass variety, are spaced out along the front side, opening out into sectioned off terraces, each with their own vine covered dividing wall in between them to offer privacy. Separate awnings are built out over the balcony, with rolls of thick silk that can be rolled out and down over a wire frame tucked tightly against the wall. A large sign, skillfully painted in purples, blues, and greens portrays a white cat, curled up on a pillow, one paw in the air and a pampered expression on its face.

Inside, the foyer is grand, wooden floors polished to a mirror finish, adorned with a marble, silver, and gold inlaid depictions of the signs of the zodiac in the center, placed between two sets of sweeping staircases, one on each side. To the left and right are large public rooms, with rowed, theater style seats and stages at the far ends. Each theater has a different theme. The left is decorated in reds and golds, washing the whole thing in fiery hues. The walls are blended in the colors of the sunset, from a deep, purple red to blazing yellow at the top, which continues out over the ceiling. The theater to the right is the exact opposite. Blues and silvers are the theme here, the walls changing from rich purple at the bottom and fading to black at the top and over the ceiling. Silver stars hang from thin wires, shimmering faintly.

Each staircase in the foyer leads up to one side of a balconied hallway across the back, and beneath each, another doorway opens to two smaller, private rooms. Along the balcony, which is carpeted in deep crimson, several doors can be seen leading to private rooms, and on one end, a hallway leading to Natalia's office. Doors along the inside of the balcony lead to terraces outside. The whole of it is beautifully decorated, the wood shined and polished to perfection.

Services

Situated in the BlkDragon District, this playhouse was owned by former courtesan Natalia Derseblan until her death. It is home to cabaret style entertainment, and offers both large scale public shows as well as personal, private shows. It has two main theaters on the first floor, designed to seat audiences of forty to fifty, two smaller rooms set up to seat audiences of ten or less, and thirteen private rooms upstairs. Each private room has a different theme, from bordello style brothel rooms, to a cave, and a white sand beach. Large scale plays are put on twice a month, and the private shows are open for customers (both men and women) at anytime; however, a two-week advanced request is both preferred and a good idea, since the establishment is booked almost all the time. Prices range from four rixtles (8 bank crowns) for back-row seating, to twenty rixtles (40 bank crowns) for front row, V.I.P. seating, to one lurinthoon (200 bank crowns) for a private show and overnight stay.
