Is the plan still for this to be out by the end of the year? Seems ambitious!

Be warned: this will not be Cats like anyone knows it.
New story, new characters, DEFINITELY new staging.
I'm hearing not good things at all.

New Song(s) too So apart from the title exactly what about it makes it Cats? Because it's starting to look as though the most likely connection it has is that one of the writers might have seen one once.

If they even try to get away with not having Memory, especially with Jennifer Hudson in the cast, I swear to god.

There's no way they're not including Memory. Right? Right?!

Originally, I was hoping the transformation/ adaptation might resemble what Milos Forman did to 'Hair' (a film I love, where a conceptual "happening" was given a linear narrative). Sadly, I'm not convinced this "concept" will be so successful...

They have to add a new song so they can put it forward for Best Original Song at the Oscars, and they might as well add several so the critics can find one they like!

If he is ‘learning to sir’,he should ask Ian McKellen how to do it on his tour.

If he's another Skimbleshanks that DOESN'T have an Edinburgh accent I will riot.

I just don’t know how this, and everyone in it, will look anything other than completely daft. The world has moved on since the 80’s. I’m most intrigued to find out though.

I’ll consider it a cat-astrophe if I don’t really fancy Rum Tum Tugger in this version.

Sorry, that does nothing for me. Way too over-wrought and shouty. I also found the pauses at the end irritating.

I normally like JHudd, but I agree this is shouty. And why is she dressed like Mary Magdalene from a regional production of JCS?

Memory is not a black mama Effie White belty screamer - if far more reflective, sad, subtle with a great emotional crescendo as she is desperate for a new life. Just screaming it with pauses like Dreamgirls won’t and doesn’t work. Maybe it’s worth waiting to see the staging and set up though I’m not convinced.

We can't be that far off a trailer surely? If it opens in December, usually you get at least a teaser a year in advance.
