In the winter of 2022, Kat made her theatrical debut in “The Hang”: a new jazz opera by Taylor Mac and Matt Ray. Upon its opening, the off-off Broadway show received “Critic’s Pick” in The New York Times highlighting Kat’s “extraordinary artistry.” About her performance, Vulture praises the burgeoning actress for her “weightless, soaring scat arias,” The Wrap says, “Kat Edmonson emerges as the Teresa Stratus of off-off Broadway.” “The Hang” imagines the final hours of the life of Socrates as he asks his friends to use every moment left to think on virtue.
