CATS The Musical
 

Let the Memory Live Again.

Experience the 40th Australian Anniversary of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s record-breaking musical CATS, coming to Crown Theatre from November.

The coveted role of Grizabella the glamour cat will be played by rising star Gabriyel Thomas. She will be joined by audience favourite Todd McKenney playing the dual roles of Bustopher Jones and Asparagus alongside classical performer Mark Vincent as Old Deuteronomy, with musical theatre star Lucy Maunder as the motherly protector Jellylorum.

Also joining the feline line-up is Des Flanagan as the rebellious Rum Tum Tugger, Jarrod Draper as Munkustrap the storytelling tomcat and Leigh Archer as Jennyanydots.

Adapted from TS Eliot’s ‘Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats’, this “groundbreaking musical” (Daily Express) comes together in a sparkling fusion of music, dance and verse.

On just one special night of the year, all Jellicle cats meet at the Jellicle Ball where Old Deuteronomy, their wise and benevolent leader, makes the Jellicle choice and announces which of them will go up to The Heaviside Layer and be reborn into a whole new Jellicle life.

With timeless music, spectacular sets, breathtaking choreography and of course the unforgettable ‘Memory’, CATS is a magical musical that is “simply purrfect“ (Daily Mirror).

Let CATS thrill you once again, but don’t miss out on a seat – act fast and book your tickets today! “It’s the cat’s whiskers” (The Times)
