Cats at The National Theater

Cats, Now and Forever! Do you need to see Cats? Yes. You do. You need to see a professional production of Cats in person in a live theatre. It was a terrible movie. Watching a video of the original Broadway show is underwhelming. However, when you are in a live theatre and you witness these triple threat performers working their asses off for you, it is amazing.

Jellicles Can And Jellicles Do: Meet Coricopat

Oratorical cats, Delphicoracle cats… okay, that last one might be some made up nonsense by Andrew Lloyd Webber and T.S. Eliot, but nevertheless, it sounds like the oracles at Delphi, which is appropriate as we meet Coricopat— one half of the ‘psychic twin’ cats who are often doing lift and spin dance routines.

Jesus Christ Superstar at On Air Players

Hosanna— Hey-sanna— sanna— sanna— wow! Hey JC, JC— you’re alright by me! And that’s saying something for my second-least favorite Andrew Lloyd Webber musical! Players On Air have outdone themselves with their return to live, in-person theatre this summer.

Review: Jesus Christ Superstar

To conquer death you only have to die. So tell us, oh great king of Nazareth, this Jesus Christ Superstar, do you think you’re what they say you are?
