Cats

Work:: Cats (S1460)

Song and dance based loosely on the T.S.Elliot poems Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats. The plot is that all the cats are gathering for the Jellicle Ball at which one will be bestowed with an extra life. All the performers are cats in a outsize alley which takes over the whole auditorium. The show has a loose story but is essentially a series of pieces about the individual cats, their personalities and their lives. During the interval there is a chance for younger members of the audience to meet a cat and get an autograph. Time Out called it the dancing moggie show.

23 Oct 04 - I've only seen Cats once but I have watched it on DVD countless times and I'm hooked. My grandchildren at 2 & 6 also love it. I'm Taking my 6 year old G/daughter to Wimbledon to see it. Stu Ramsay is a fab RumTumTugger.
