With a name like Andrew Lloyd Webber behind a musical production you know you cant go wrong.
Andrew Lloyd Webber is famous for his genius theatre productions such as Evita, Phantom of the
Opera, Jesus Christ Superstar, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and Starlight Express.
CATS brings not only the mastermind musical composition from Webber but the lyrics and original
book are written by the poet T.S. Eliot. Cats tickets have been a commodity since the play first
opened in 1981. Since that time it has been translated into 20 different languages and families all
over the world are raving about what a great show CATS is.
Of the many fabulous songs Andrew Lloyd
Webber creates for this musical, Memory, which has been re-recorded by 150 artists, is a song you
will never forget.
The show starts with a shy beginning as the felines are aware of the audience. Cats is truly
amazing in that the cast really fills the roles perfectly. As the show starts to quicken its pace
you get to meet each individual cat as they perform their own personal jellicle dance in the Naming
of the cats. Like most cats in everyday life they are suspicious and proud so its no surprise that
each cat has three different names. Cats really keeps the audiences attention as they explain their
secret names, only shared amongst each other, their more dignified name, and of course the name
that the felines family uses daily. The characters in CATS really keep you focused on each
beautiful move they make and even more so with the catchy tunes.
Seeing CATS is seeing a play for the music, the dancing, and the costumes. This play is much
different than others, with a minimal story line that is filled in by numerous great numbers. CATS
is about a group of felines, who live in a junkyard, and are all getting ready for the annual
Jellicle Ball to decide which cat can be reborn. With Tony Awards in 1983 for Best Musical and
Original Score, among 5 other awards, CATS tickets are a must have. So get to Denver Colorado or
New Haven, Connecticut and get your Cats tickets while they are still performing for you live!
