I Saw CATS!!!



So, in case I didn't scream and shout all about it like I did to a certain few, my best friend took me to see CATS for my birthday. It was at Pantages theatres and we saw it on it's last showing here. I'd actually never heard any of Cats before. I mean I knew it was a musical. But I've heard of many musicals I've known nothing about.

Anywho, we left early at the suggestion of both our mothers... Yeah, we're not gonna take that advice anymore, or maybe take it only on occassion. We got there 2 hours early. Drove by a parking lot with people leaving from an earlier showing. So, we walked around looking at the stars on the walk until we found a place to eat dinner and play cards to kill time.

The show:



Now, Ranti sent Chrissi part of the soundtrack and she sent it to me, so I gotta say... I already went in loving the music. It's just so fun. And c'mon, it's about CATS! They're all dressed in these cool (and yes some funny looking) costumes. The dance numbers were amazing. I swear, dancers these days have springs in their legs! These guys musta practiced behaving like cats for months. I mean check out some of these poses:



Overall, it was a fantastic night! Near the start of the show, one of the performers grabbed a girl in the audience and danced with her in the aisle. It was funny! All the excitement leading up to the night wasn't let down.

(And cuz the Playing search never works... I'm Currently Listening to the CATS soundtrack)

My uncle took me to CATS with my cousin and I loved it, although I was apprehensive at first, since I've never been to a musical before. I wanna watch them again!! :((
