The One about Cats....

Was asked by Jie a few months back whether would i be interested to catch 'CATS' the musical. I havent caught much of Andrew Loyd Webbers productions in my lifetime so i figured this would be as good a time as any.

Didn't exactly want to gatecrash the family outing of jie's alone so i decided to get Liza to join me for the musical as well. Turned out to be a little late than the time i was supposed to them as i came straight from my workout regime in the morning. As a Result the rest have already had there first round of drinks at 'Barossa' the restaurant at which we had out lunch.

The Play itself was pretty amazing! As it was the first time i am catching CATS at all (Nope... i didn't even watch it on TV). I was rather suprised that the play had realy very minimal dialouge, yes i do know it is a musical but still it was close to no dialouge at all. But that aside, there was lots of audience interaction and participation, great music and lots and lots of feline humour (pun intended).

Apart from Mr Mistofles, Another character that i was really amused by was Rum Tum Tuger who reminded me an awful lot of David Bowie! Be sure to catch it if you have the chance!
