Performance Art

I am quitting my job to move to New York (or maybe Las Vegas) and start an off broadway show. In this show I will throw a series of felines (each larger than the last) into a clear vat of petroleum jelly. First a house cat, then an ocelot, then a cheetah, then a mountain lion, then a tiger, then a lion. They will all struggle but eventually drown due to the fact that they cannot swim through such a thick and sticky substance. After they all have died, the stage will go dark except for a single spotlight pointed at a small boy crying in the corner. He will be holding a sign that reads "Viscosity Killed the Cat".
