The Jellicle cats will be coming out on August 2, when a revival of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s ‘80s mega-musical Cats opens in New York. It’s the first revival since the show closed in 2000 after a record-breaking 18-year run.
Trevor Nunn will be back as director, but the production will feature some updates to the notoriously un-hip show—including new choreography from Andy Blankenbuehler, the choreographer of Hamilton. Let the memory live again!
And if you prefer your Old Possum’s without any musical stylings, you can listen to T.S. Eliot read “The Naming of Cats.”
