CATS SO INSPIRES YOU

I have seen 6 performances and will never tire of it. I gave my April 14th ticket to my neice who just played a cat in her school play. I can see her in a live CATS performance one day. ... Read more

Magnificent!

This is my first time seeing my favourite musical live here at the Jubilee Auditorium in Edmonton, and it was magnificent! The dancers - especially Mr Mistoffelees, Victoria and Cassandra - were extraordinary! The costumes, make-up, music and stage and special effects - the way the dancers came into the aisles and interacted with the audience was so much fun and beautiful and outstanding! And the final performance of Memory made me cry it was so breathtaking! If TS Eliot were alive to see what was done with his work, I believe he would be thrilled. The sheer power of the metaphors between the lives and personalities of cats reflect all that is human, all of our art and the dancers are truly as graceful as real cats. I highly recommend it to all and would gladly go see it again and again and again. Thank you to cast and crew of Cats as performed on 24 February 2012 in Edmonton, Alberta! ... Read more

CATS is Still Amazing

CATS is perhaps one of the best musicals ever. The music is beautiful, and the dancing is amazing. If you like the most acrobatic and dazzling dance, you'll love CATS. You'll see back flips, mid air somersaults, ballet spins, leaps, tap dancing, and on and on. The dancing never stops. This is really an operetta because it's all songs and dance. Plot? No, but who needs that when you have over two hours of spectacular music. Of cousre, Andrew Lloyd Weber certainly knows how to milk a melody. And you'll hear the same melodies over and over basically until you fall in love with them all. Jellicle Cats, the first of the show is great. Magical Mephistopheles is still my favorite. And of course, Memories heard three times was sung superbly. Yes, CATS is not to be missed. GREAT SHOW! ... Read more
