Cats (Broadway show)
From Wikiality
Cats is a musical based on the writings of e.e. cummings.
The long-running show first premiered at Gerald Ford's Theater on the night that President Abraham Lincoln was assasinated by John Wilkes Booth. It is performed by a cast of kittens dressed as choo-choo trains, who roller skate around James Earl Jones, who plays an African or something.
This should not be considered a real musical. It is just a bunch of fools with good dance training and a really bored make-up and wardrobe team. Stephen sat through it once, and he thought he was going to kill himself.
