A spectacular new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s multi award-winning musical CATS is coming to Newcastle Theatre Royal.
From Euston station to Victoria Grove, the strays and rebels of London gather under the Jellicle moon in the hope they’ll be the chosen one. And each of them asks, because each of them dares, who will it be?
Based on T.S. Eliot’s Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats, and with a legendary score which inspired generations featuring, Old Deuteronomy, Macavity: The Mystery Cat, Jellicle Ball and the chart-topping hit Memory, this brand-new production of CATS, directed and choreographed by Drew McOnie (Brigadoon, Jesus Christ Superstar) arrives June 2027 for 2 weeks only.
Michael Harrison for Lloyd Webber Harrison Musicals presents a Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre production. By arrangement with LW Entertainment.
