CATS Revival

It is my understanding that tickets are on sale for the Broadway revival of CATS, but little to no information about the upcoming show. I have not seen a cast list or little publicity.

Does anyone know when the cast list is supposed to be released? If the previews start in July, shouldn't it have been released by now and or rehearsals to commence?

Anyone with any information about the upcoming revival?

Well, if previews begin in July, then rehearsals will probably start end of May. So, we've still got a little bit of time.

If you're referring to Nicole Scherzinger, she actually started off studying musical theatre at Wright State University in Ohio.

Does Rum Tum Tugger still rap? Ugh...

The CATS marquee went up today!

Thanks for posting. I was wondering when they were going to put up the marquee.

That seems to be the big question if previews start July 14th, where is the cast list?

That looks so sad and depressing compared to the Winter Garden marquee.

I believe that this new production will not be able to accomplish what the original was able to: I don't think the Nederlanders would be willing to gut the Neil Simon like the Winter Garden. That along with the fact that Cats was a product of its time, makes me believe that this production will not have the impact and magic the original production once had. But, you never know. We'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Discounts? That's funny.

I think they were silly to not hold out and just revisit their first home at the Winter Garden.

Has that flag pole always been there? Or is it new? Do shows usually use it?
