Overview
Before the internet loved cats, the stage did too. Back in the early '80s, musical maestro Andrew Lloyd Webber took T.S. Eliot's Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats, turned it into a tale of feisty felines, and triumphed in West End and on Broadway. Even if you haven't seen it, you've heard of it.
Indeed, CATS is one of those productions that always seems to be on in a theatre somewhere; it has played to 73 million people in over 300 cities around the world, after all. In Australia, the latest staging is doing the rounds, with Brisbane its next stopover.
The Olivier Award-nominated revival once again follows the Jellicle Cats as they come out to play in a larger-than-life junkyard, with plenty of memories made — and the song 'Memory' sung — in the antics that follow. Even if that doesn't sound like your cup of tea, we know you're fond of the cute creatures at the show's centre. Don't make us check your YouTube history.
