Why did they skip like the whole song? Why do the cats look so different then they do when it was filmed?

[chrissi2810]

They skip the half song because it was filmed for a TV show.

And the costumes are different because in the film it's the London version and this is the American version.

how do you get the original broadway cast or london cast movie of this? Please message me !

[chrissi2810]

I got the video of the Original Broadway Cast from the DVD 'Broadway's Last Treasures'. It was a special performance for the Tony Awards.

[SquealingBladder]

Wow, a lot of people seem to dislike this cast. You need to realize that this was one of the first casts of cats, so of course everything is going to look different and their dance moves will be different. They didn't have the movie to base anything on, nor had the choreography, costumes, and face paint really been that perfected yet. This cast did a very good job and they deserve more kudos than most are giving them.

It's basically a musical adaptation of T.S. Elliot's "Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats". Webber used the poems as lyrics (mostly) and made them into a musical.

Ok, listen! This is from way back to 1982. The costumes aren't exactly the same as the 1998 film. Also, Gillian Lynne used the same exact choreography in each production, including the film. As well, this is a shortened version of the song. Calm down!!!

@CrazyAboutSims2 this was the tony awards and was a preview of the show that was filmed

[SquealingBladder]

@Wenubischannel Very true.

[Wenubischannel]

@SquealingBladder And besides, it wouldn't be so great to be a CATS fan if there weren't so much differences between all those casts

[ValtronW]

You morons do realize that some of the video cast originated in THIS cast, right?

Show some damn appreciation.

[goldkehlchen1993]

okay ... (mal kurz in deutsch: wollen wir heiraten? wir könnten uns stundenlang cats videos ansehen....), now english: I think the costumes are pretty colourfuil, I like that, but still the make-up and the wigs are a bit too much - in German we say "less is more", that's the case here in my opinion. but still, a good interpretaion of the song!

[noodle0912]

@CrazyAboutSims2 It's the Tony Awards version.

[MewPassionAngel]

@SquealingBladder Here, here! I think this cast is excellent and equally as talented as the video cast! Stop the hating people!

Also, anyone else love the girl at 1:52? xD

[MultiPearl007]

these cats are WAY too dramatic, i like the film better

[MultiPearl007]

i prefer the costumes from the film, these ones look to cheap
