What is Cats all about?
Based on T.S. Eliot’s poetry, Cats invites you to the Jellicle Ball, a whimsical midnight scrapheap gathering. The tribe of felines must decide which of them will ascend to the Heaviside Layer to be reborn into a new life.
One by one, the cats introduce themselves through spectacular song and dance: from the rockstar Rum Tum Tugger to the magical Mr. Mistoffelees. The emotional heart is Grizabella, the faded "Glamour Cat," whose soaring rendition of "Memory" ultimately wins over the tribe. And there's the evil Macavity, the mystery cat.
