Default Cats thread
Post all your discussions on Cats, Broadway, West End or otherwise, here! Proof that you can take poetry by TS Eliot and turn it into an awesome musical!

Cats! Yay! Are you a Cats fan, helena? I love it. I think it's awesome. I still have the copy of Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats that someone gave me when I was little.

oh my gosh I am totally a Cats fan, hasynesy! I was in a primary school show we did of it, in 'Magical Mr Mistopheles' (hmm, not sure if that's how you spell it). My Dad made us listen to it for the whole summer afterwards! LOVED Memory from the very beginning, though I used to think it was a sort of waltz number, since we had a terrible piano cover recording of it in the show. Really surprised me when it actually had, what, words and all Not sure I get the actual plot of the musical, though I love the poetry, the costumes, and the music numbers. Guess that's good enough for me!

It's spelled Mistoffelees =D
The musical doesn't really have a plot, to be honest, but the characters and music more than makes up for it. I wish I could have done it in school, all I had was the DVD and a lot of hope. =(
