About:
Based on T. S. Eliot’s Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats, the show is set amongst a larger- than-life junkyard playground and is alive with our favourite feline characters including Rum Tum Tugger, Mr. Mistoffelees, Macavity, Jennyanydots, Old Deuteronomy, Grizabella and Skimbleshanks.
The Jellicle Cats come out to play on one special night of the year - the night of the Jellicle Ball. One by one they tell their stories for the amusement of Old Deuteronomy, their wise and benevolent leader, who must choose one of the Cats to ascend to The Heaviside Layer and be reborn into a whole new Jellicle life.
And voila everyone, this is how I know the name of every single cat.
I didn't expect to find you here
Herow dere! ❤️
not every cat. There's a "aunt" cat that's holding an embroidery cloth when Rum Tum Tugger slides down towards the camera during his running around the stage sequence. She also joins the other female cats when fighting off Macavity. don't know who she is yet.
@@hadassah179 that may be jennyanydots.
Fancy seeing you here lol
You know you're an extra when your name is literally Etcetera 😂
Yep.
Etcetera pulls the most hilarious faces though! I love her!
@@Hinatachan360 Don’t forget the trapeze! And that she covers Victoria at one point.
Big oof
Etcetera was Grizabella’s daughter, but Grizabella abandoned her and didn’t bother to name her. When she was picked by the Jellicles from the gutter, she chose Etcetera as her name, but is relatively unashamed.
Fun fact:
"Exotica" can only be seen during a handful of songs (including The Naming Of Cats, Skimbleshanks and The Ad-dressing Of Cats). The character was created for this production for the sole reason that they wanted to give Femi Taylor a part, since she was part of the original cast of the musical's first production. Star Wars fans may know Femi Taylor as Oola, the green Twi'lek dancer in Jabba's Palace who gets thrown into the rancor pitt. She even returned to film extra scenes for the special edition about 20 years after the original release of Episode VI, somehow not having aged at all.
She’s also in Gus’ song and many other parts, hidden in the background. Love her.
@@SimonsHairBeauty Whenever I watch Cats and see Exotica I say "Exotica spotted!" Lol it's pretty fun to do
@@ethanlivemere1162 haha me too!
You have to admit, John Partridge is *THE* Rum Tum Tugger! The cast is absolutely incredible!
My favorite cat is Rumpleteazer. I love how she's so mischievous and energetic
She's my favorite, too!!!
And cute!
I love Misto!
Very nice ass too.
@Matilda Atrill I also like Mister Mistoffelees
"Bustopher Jones"
"James *Barron* "
Well someone was clearly made for that role obviously...
That's exactly what I thought!!
Of all the Tuggers I've seen, John Partridge has to be the best
I wish we could have seen Bombalurina and Demeter interact more with the kittens.
I agree
I agree
I've just realised: 1:21 is when Mistoffelees is finishing the Conjuring Turn! That must mean they have the footage somewhere, or did. (For those that don't know; the Conjuring Turn is Mistoffelees' signature move. It is twenty-four (or more) fouettes (turns) in second and takes place during the cut part of his dance solo.) If they still have the footage, I would love it if they released it, maybe on a special edition of the video, or as a bonus feature on the new movie coming out later this year?
Ayzeck Nozniksid holy fuck you’re right! Damn, I SO wished they didn’t cut his song down. It has to exist somewhere!
@@ihatemyname2816 But yes; it stinks that they had to cut it!
@@ayzecknozniksid3126 Good catch! I hope that someday they will release a full/uncut special edition assuming they still have all of the footage. It would be absolutely amazing
@@officerdoge690 Thanks. I wish they would release the entire thing uncut! It would be nice to see the entire Gumbie Tap, all of Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer, the parts taken from the Jellicle Ball, and all of Misto's solo! (Misto's solo especially!)
@@ayzecknozniksid3126 Gotta love that Misto :) But with today's technology I would say that they could re-add what they cut, considering DVDs can hold up to 4 hours of content and the show being about 2 hours and then some
I really feel they captured lightning in a bottle with this ensemble.
They were all perfectly casted in their prime of their age.
Story and music all around is superb.
It's doubtful this cast combo can exist again!
And to think this was originally meant to air on TV just once. But they thankfully decided to release it on video
By far the best version of the soundtrack I can find. The instrumentals are excellent and very cinematic.
I love Cassandra!
She's just so Mysterious,
I JUST LOVE IT
Brocolium
Brocolium my favorite character
Brocolium Will you agree that she deserves her own song? The History Cat! I mean, she was there when the Pharoahs commissoned the Sphinx.
The Elephant Pig Cassandra the History Cat. I like it.
I love her too I also like Jemima
Let's not forget that Bryn Walters also played Plato, and Frank Thompson also played Admetus.
When people try to question how I know all the different cats and can (usually at least) tell them apart, this is what I show them. All so unique especially with the personalities attached to them all.
....Ok I sometimes have trouble with Tumblebrutus/Plato/Pouncival especially when it's not close up or doing something in particular. Especially when you throw in that Bill Bailey, Admetus, and Carbuckitty don't always have the same costume as their counterpart, and they're all different whether it's us or uk based, and sometimes they'll have two of some like Plato and Admetus, and then if you throw George into the mix, or if they use the not black and white Alonzo, it's just all a mess when it comes to the ensemble toms. The Queens and kittens are so easy to tell apart but those three disasters mess with everything.
Yes I love them all! Love the play I saw it was it was the real deal in the 1990's. I will never forget it. I was blown away. So amazing on stage in front of my eyes. Dusty the 2nd.
Plato and Admetus are the same cat
@@jaredvecchio I know (unlike too many people in the comments), I had just listed the 3 different tracks/characters I mess up, and then later mentioned their alternate names. George is real and valid and isn't Admetus.
MariaThePotterNut Admetus is. I played Admetus last year in a production
@@jaredvecchio Good for you, that's awesome! I was saying, the character in this version that people mistakenly call Admetus is actually George. Admetus isn't in this particular version, because he's Plato.
This Is the best cast.Period.

The Elephant Pig so my fav character is Cassandra and 2 years ago I was in the musical Cats AND I WAS CASSANDRA when they told me the first line they said it was the hardest line in the show in my head I was like OMG YAY
hands down, Jemima is my favourite next to Grizabella
That's very very very very very very helpful thanks 😺
My favourites are 0:29 Munkustrap and 1:00 Rampelteezer (she's super-cute!)
I also like 0:15 Old Deuteronomy - the actor is just perfect for the character.
2 honorable mentions - 2:00 Tumbletrumbus - love his deep voice in Heaven & Hell part - wish there was more and 1:50 Pouncival - like how he jumps down, also the spot round his eye.
Thanks for writing all of them down!
I used to watch this movie several times a day when I was little. I had nightmares about macavity and the rumpus cat for years! I've re fallen in love with the musical since then
Victoria's face when Rumpleteazer sneezes - "You got some corona going on, girl?"
my favourite cat is munkustrap
Roblox Caillou Same here
Me too :)
Mine is Grizabella. I was bullied a lot as a kid so I could relate to her pain of feeling like an outcast and just wanting to be included. I sang Memory for my 8th grade solo and ensemble contest and got first place.
Mine are Munkustrap, Alonzo and Victoria
Roblox Caillou that’s cool! Mine is Victoria 🙂
the best cast!
Hey do you know what happened to Growltiger's song? I don't think it's in the movie- why not?
Chloe - the reason why they didn't add it was because sir john mills took to long when they were recording this film so they didn't add it in, sadly
ohhh I see, thanks- yeah it's a shame
Chloe - they should've had Tony Timberlake do them both as one character. Doing both Gus and Growltiger
Austin Pearce I absolutely hated Growtiger's Last Stand, glad it was cut out. It would of made it more darker than the Macavity segment.
My favorite cat is Jemima
Me too
Jemima is the best. Then Demeter then Rumpleteazer and lastly Victoria.
I love her too!
My all time favorite too!
She’s just so damn cute!
Aww at 0:30 Jemima's fur looks so bright red! So cute!!
It's because of the spotlight on her face.
I didn’t really know what cats was for a long time but after watching the movie trailer I started getting interested in it, to the point where I asked my music teacher Justin about it and he showed me a bit of the costumes he and the company he has called Etcetera Productions has as they did cats themselves
He allowed me to borrow the DVD he has and my mind was blown when I watched it. I loved everything about it and I watched it several times. As for the movie trailer, I honestly think it’s going to be great. Of course the cgi does look strange but I think that’s what the movie is going for. I’m so going to see it when it comes out and I don’t care about what people say about it
Now I’m a huge fan of cats thanks to the trailer, and the DVD I borrowed. I’m hoping to see the real stage performance one day and I can’t wait for the movie.
Now to answer some questions
My favourite songs are memory, jellicle songs for jellicle cats, and The rum tum tugger
And my favourite cats are Victoria, Grizabella, rum tum tugger, Cassandra, and munkustrap.
Actually, scratch that! I love them all
Great to see the trailer brings some new faces to the fandom! I have been in love with this musical for about 4 years now, I've seen the DVD more times than I can count. Personally, I also think the movie has some great potential if you can get past the uncanny valley quality of the CGI. There are some odd things (like Judi Dench as Old D) but as someone who can literally quote this entire 2 hour DVD by heart, it'll be refreshing to see something new, on the big screen! I hope you get to see a live performance, it blew my mind when I first went to one!
(Also Tumblebrutus is my all time favorite)
Ethan Livemere that’s awesome! Rock on! Hopefully I can do cats cause I’m in a musical performing group called the Mount Pearl Show Choir and we do musical performances so maybe we can do this one
It's been a year. How do you feel now?
Tugger and Munkustrap 😍😍😍😍
They are doing a remake.. Scheduled for December 2019 release date.. An actual movie. They are going to screw up my childhood memories.
coldclock92 I know Taylor swift is in it. What has the world come to 😭
R.I.P my childhood
It might not be too bad. Taylor Swift is a good singer, and this isn't her first time acting. Plus, I'm sure everyone went through the same sort of training professional stage actors go through in order to behave like cats. I understand what you mean when you say that they could really mess it up; I have seen many performances/adaptionas of CATS where they've added things that just do not work with CATS (rapper Tugger, for example, or some aspects of the Broadway revival). But we shouldn't just expect it to be bad when we haven't seen any footage from the movie yet. It may be brilliant. It may be terrible. We should probably just wait for the first trailer before we make a decision about that.
Lol
@Tim B Is it out?
Saw this musical yesterday when it came to The Netherlands. I loved it. My fav cats are Mungojerrie, Rumpeleazer and Skimbleshanks.
I don’t have a favorite I love everything about cats but Etcetera is one of my favorites.
THE BEST TUGGER
Mlp Brony94best
RUM TUM TUGGER 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Agreed! I love him
Hands down! No questions asked. Just, THE BEST 😔👌
Cats is my all time favorite musical!!!
my all time favourite musical is Half a Sixpence
These cats are just beautiful they have been in my life for 19 years I'm 24 so I'm thankful to have gotten to know each song each character and each story thanks to this cast they opened my eyes to a world of dreams I am beyond thankful for them thank you guys!
I remember I would watch this every single day. As well as the movie of course, I'm still obsessed with it ❤️
No kidding, me too. My bf and I are going to see it in July for our 1 year anniversary 💖😻
All those cats r lovable characters, but my 2 personal favorite characters r the duo, Mungojerrie & Rumpleteazer
I showed my dad the musical and he said that once the whole "you know what" clears out and with enough money he would take us to go see it.
I love all of the cats!!
Me too!
They're all lovable character, aren't they?
I wish I had the opportunity via social media back in the early 2000s to somehow tell some of these folks how much the inspired me as a vocalist and performer as a kid.
I wish this cast was cameo in the upcoming new Cats movie.
I bet you're now glad they didn't.
1:04
That face❤
Victoria, Jemima and Rumpleteaser
If I had a chance I would be mistoffles or mungojerie
I would be Rumpleteazer or Etcetera. Maybe Etcetera because I scream a lot when excited 😂
This version will always be my favorite
0:05 ooooh, Grizzabella the SASSY cat!
Cassandra and Exotica were always my favourites.
Cassandra is one of my favorite cat! And so is rumpleteazer
My cat favorite is Rumpleteazer and Jemima i love you
Mine 2. Jemima's so sweet, & Rumpleteazer reminded me of myself in high school.
Love the film credits Casandra is my favourite😻
Boy, she was ready for her close-up! That's a film noir cat right there.
My favourite cat is Victoria 😍
I also like Cassandra, Rumpelteazer and Jemima
This show made me want a cat and name it after one of the characters. Bustopher is a brilliant name.
I had a cat once who had a name coincidentally close to Mr. Mistoffeeles. My cat's name was Mistocles, but we called him Misty. But he acted like Rum Tum Tugger 😂 (maybe I got their son).
And there’s me, whose favorite is Pouncival. I love him always jumping around or doing some funny crap in the background. 😂
I like cat Rumpleteazer 😍😘😗😗😗😗😍😍😍😙😚
I do 2. That cat had her paw wrapped around my finger from the start.
My favorite cat is Demeter.
Also Demestrap 😻 (they’re perfect together).
After watching the film I remembered my huge love for this musical !!!!❤️❤️❤️
Rum is my favorite!
I love Coricopat and Tantomile,Pouncival,Tumblebrutus and Cassnadra!! Lovely 🐱
I thought Gus and Asparagus were supposed to be the same character.
Alexander Zinnurov same
In the musical they are, but since John Mills could not do the really active dancing because of his age, they split it up. Else they would have had a cat short for some parts and it was easier to just add a cat than to change choreo.
Lies Vandenplas they should've just had Tony Timberlake do them both as one character.
Austin Pearce I found out the one who played Asparagus couldn't do Gus' part, because the smell from the face paint got into his throat. And Sir Andrew L Webber wanted Sir John Mills to play Gus. Besides Growtiger's Last Stand scared the shit out of me, when I listened to the original cast CD. Glad they put the Great Rumpus Cat segment in instead.
Actually there is Asparagus senior and Asparagus junior
My favorite cat is Mr. Mistoffelees
And for those of you who are curious as to why two of the cats aren't credited and what their names are: the two uncredited cats are Admetus and Pluto, and the reason why is because their actors also play Rumpus Cat and Macavity.
I don't see how that's the reason for them not being credited.
You could credit an actor even if he/she played 10 different roles!
It's just a clip and a name.
@@lisamikky1696 That's true, but considering the fact that those two are the only cats that aren't listed, it's the only logical explanation that I can see.
Are there any Et Cetera fans? I was always riveted with her whenever I watched this growing up.
i love her
Yo! She's cool. Makes rum tum tugger song all the more great 👌
I think she's underrated ^^ I love her energy, she's tons of fun like Rumpleteazer
These are my favorite cats from CATS:
Munkustrap: He’s a very cool cat😎 and I like his coat pattern
Gumbie Cat: Her song is very catchy
Rum Tum Tugger: He’s a different breed😂😂
Jemima: The actress who plays her is very attractive and has an AMAZING voice.
Mungojerrie & Rumpelteazer: Their song is catchy too.
This Cast of Cats needs a reunion and sing melody of Cats!!!
John mills is deceased now
So this whole way through, Munkustrap gave me very Alan Rickman energy so when I find out the actor's last name is Gruber, all is right with the world.
My 2 favourite cats have to be rumpleteazer and mistoffelees
I love how they all have fancy technical names but then they have Victoria and Cassandra. Like come on you couldn’t think of 2 more names that were fancy weird
Anyone else look up the actors to see what they look like without the make up?
Aww so that's how it ended, although I feel as if the ending is more of a cliffhanger but alas the lives of the individuals is a life kept to themselves for others to not know further; this is amazing
Tantomile is my favourite cat
I was today old when I realised that Jason Gardiner aka my favourite judge off of Dancing on Ice was in Cats lol he plays Alonzo! I was also today old when I realized that Jason is in fact Australian...I have been watching dancing on ice since I was like 11 when it first aired... I'm now 25 lol it has taken me over a decade to work out that his accent doesn't sound like mine lol xxc
Grizabella and Victoria are my favorite Cats 🤎🖤❤️😿😻🤍🤍🤍.
rum tum tugger is my favourite
I actually want to see more *-*
This is as 90's as it gets, folks. And I love it
This was an amazing spectacle. I watched the movie before this, and it doesn't hold a candle to this.
All this time I've been calling Rumpus Cat "Superhero Cat" xD
BABABAHAHHAHAHAH🤣🤣🤣
My favorite cat is Bustopher Jones, but the Rumpus Cat is always a close second.
Anyone else think Rum Tum Tugger is the cat version of Prince?
I can't tell if Macavity matches hair band or twisted sister look.
OooOOOooo
First time watching this musical and Im so glad I did because it is amazing! Munkustrap, Mistoffelees, Demeter, and Jemima are definitely my favorites.
My favourites are Cassandra, Victoria and Bombalurina. I still am OBSESSED with their mysteriousness and sexiness ever since I was 8 and now as a 24 year old they were basically part of my character development. I love them!!! I also had a fat crush on Rum Tum Tugger. Still do🤭
Everyone is just so cute in their roles!
And here I am. Wanting to be Munkustrap, and looking like Bustopher...
rumpus cat and macavity are creepy
Max and Klari macavity is the scariest design I've ever seen
Dillon Ohlemiller You should see other productions, Macavity is more scary in them. Including the Japanese version of him.
my favorite cats are macavity, bombalurina, rum tum tugger and victoria
I really love on how they change the tone of this song in many different parts to make it just as interesting as it already is
0:00 0:34 0:48 1:12 1:37 1:56 2:21
And a bonus one 2:25
1:15 Why do I find this part frickin adorable?
I wish they would have still included Admetus and Plato in the credits, even though their actors were featured in other roles. I don't know why that always bothered me lol
I was so sure Cassandra would have a song of her own after hearing her awesome voice in the first song x_x She's by far the one that looks the best... after the Rum Tum Tugger obviously
Catsandra is definitely a Cat!
My favorite cat is Cassandra
She’s one of my favorites too
I’d have loved if they’d put shots of the actors both with and without makeup in the credits
I love it... Special thanks to The Film Musical Cats and special thanks to all Actors and Actress. My deep Respect.
I love the Mr. Mistoffels, Mungojerrie, Rumpleteazer and Bombalurina
I became a CATS fan just a few weeks ago and I'm using this to help me sort out who's who of the background cats I didn't notice the first time! I think I've got about half of their names down . . .
I remember the first time I saw the credits, I was like, "Hey where's the cat that danced with Victoria and another grey cat that you see in the background a lot!" It would take several more viewings to realize their actors were the same as Rumpus Cat and Macavity lol.
Best cast ever fr fr
why didn't they do plato??
I think he was also rumpus it makes sense
Charlotte Land Nope Plato was Macavity. Admetus is The Great Rumpus Cat. Just watch Admetus' expressions, Rumpus Cat does them also.
amanogirl1 you mean george?
Cause no one likes plato
Plato was portrayed by Bryn Walters, who also played Macavity :)
My favorite cats are Victoria, Mr Mistofelees, Rum Tum Tugger,Jemima, Bombalurina and of course Grizabella
1:31 1:44 My favorite cats!!
They're very sweet kittens, aren't they?
I just finished this whole musical, and it was really good! 👏🏾 I was born in 2001 so I didn’t grow up with it. Idc what anyone says at this point. I’m really excited for this 2019 version! 😍 and yes I know, some of them do look scary lol, but I got over it a long time ago. 🤷🏽♀️
Pure Excellence!👍🏾
Yeah!
01:52
Electra (Starlight Express): Clear my track-
The best cast.
The Jellicle Ball is my favourite piece of music in Cats
