CATS

  This is the musical that started it all for me!  Cats is one of the most amazing musicals you will ever see for many reasons.  The music in it is awe inspiring and you just want to get up and dance with the cast (trust me I have gotten up and danced through this musical)!  The choreography is so breath takingly beautiful and performed with expert skill that you don't want to take your eyes off the screen! 
  Cats is the second longest running broadway musical on record right behind a Chorus Line.  This is also the fourth longest running West End Musical on record.  From 1982-2000 this musical has touched audiences young and old.  Based on T.S. Elliot's Old Possum;s Book of Practical Cats the songs and scenes will have you entranced from beginning to end.
  Andrew Lloyd Webber is the genius behind this musical.  He found the best orchestra, cast and crew for the job.  His film version of this musical has big name stars such as Elaine Paige and Ken Page.  Each executed their roles with utmost dignity and captivating acting as well as remarkable voices!
  The story is simple.  The Jellicle cats meet once a year, for the Jellicle ball where they all rejoice.  Then the Jellicle leader will soon appear and make what is known as the Jellicle choice.  When Old Deuteronomy just before dawn through a silence you feel you could cut with a knife, announces the cat who can now be reborn and come back to a different Jellicle life.  For waiting up there is the Heavyside Lair full of wonders one Jellicle only will see.  And Jellicles ask because Jellicles dare, who will it be?  You'll find out who when you watch the musical!
  Some of my favorite songs from this are Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer (two little cat burgalurs), Rum Tum Tugger (The Michael Jackson/ Elvis cat of the tribe), and Memory parts 1 and 2 (sung by Grizabella as portrayed by Elaine Paige.)  Believe me, Cats is a musical you do not want to miss out on.  I'm giving you a link/ video for a taste of this fantastic phenomenon!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrRaV9tbB-w&safe=active
