263: CATS (Young Australian Broadway Chorus, Melbourne Australia) (review)

Cats (Young Australian Broadway Chorus, Melbourne Australia) Based on TS Elliot’s collection of poems ‘Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats’, and featuring an eclectic score by Andrew Lloyd Webber, CATS has enjoyed record-breaking runs in the West End, on Broadway, and all around the world, and later this year will be released as a major motion picture. Taking its lead from the era of the original poems, which were written by Elliot for his children in the 1930s, our new production will evoke England during the Great Depression.In a crumbling Music Hall, our band of very theatrical Cats will strut and sing and prance and dance as they gather together for the Jellicle Ball.Music by Andrew Lloyd WebberBased on “Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats” by T.S. EliotFor more information visit https://nationaltheatre.org.au/cats/  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
