CATS!!
Finally went to watch CATS at Esplanade Theatre yesterday.. I think it was shown in Singapore sometime back... Honestly, I didn't think I will go watch CATS, cause compared to other musicals by Andrew Lloyd, it didn't seem to be that heavy, plot wise, but after yesterday, I know now why its the second longest running musical and so popular throughout the world...What made it so special was the interactiveness and the amazing theatrics that was displayed. This is definitely one musical that you cannot watch through a video, it just doesnt do it justice... Another wonderful thing bout it is the numerous characters that appeared, each one so different from one another, appealing to the young and old alike... And of course, who can forget Grizabella, the cat who made 'Memory' Famous, partially thanks to Elaine Page... Lol..
Overall, its not those sad, heart capturing musicals, but more of the fun, colourful, entertaining musicals you see from the likes of Mamma Mia.. Lots of dancing, acrobatic displays, wonderful songs, brilliant costumes, sets... Take a look at the opening song from the musical, one of my favourite song from the musical..
By and all, its a very entertaining musical, kids will definitely love it, but they will be leaving this sun, so for those who miss it, look out for the next one and please dont hesitate next time.... =)
