Based on T.S.
Eliot's "Old Possum's Book of Practical
Cats," and with music by Andrew Lloyd
Webber, CATS won seven Tony awards in 1983,
including Best Musical, Best Book of a Musical,
Best Lighting and Best Costumes. While Webber's
hit, "Memory," is one of the most
recognized songs in both theater and pop culture.
CATS
follows the journey of a ramshackle group
of felines who reunite once a year to celebrate
their own special traits and the heritage
of
the "Jellicle Cat" tribe. Upon the
journey, audience members are treated to the
antics of "The Old Gumbie Cat," "The
Rum Tum Tugger" and "Grizabella,
the Glamour Cat," among others. Each is
awaiting a chance to perform at the Jellicle
Ball, where one lucky feline will have the
chance to be reborn.
With song, dance and special
effects, CATS is musical theater at its finest.
The numbers
don't lie.
