CATS Broadway Mega Edit
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 сер 2020
- This is an ongoing project to edit together all available clips of the original CATS Broadway run into one show. Unfortunately, there are many songs that don't have clips that I was able to find.
If you have any clips, pictures, or even know of an entire Broadway bootleg, please let me know. You can contact me at victoriagroveteazer@gmail.com.
Growltiger has been omitted for obvious reasons.
This is a good idea!
And you found the rum tum tugger clip that's been missing from youtube! omg, and the journey to the heavenside layer from the 1997 world record show!
Thank you! One of my friends had the foresight to download a lot of those clips from youtube beforehand, so I'm lucky she had them! Thankfully, that youtube channel does go down at times and has stated the videos will be back up soon, so those vids aren't gone forever!
for those wondering "why are "Jellicle Songs" and "Memory" so short, those two elements were taken from the 1983 Tony Awards broadcast & those two songs were videotaped in advance of the awards show.
Thank you for including Betty Buckley's version of "Memory". She was/is the Best Grizabella (along with Elaine Paige).
And your editing is amazing, thank you for sharing!!!
I for several years also thought Betty rivaled anyone else until I saw Laurie Beechman do this live at the Winter Garden upon her 2nd return to the role in 1992. She was astounding. I encourage you to watch her documentary "listen to my heart" here on UA-cam. It has a cleaned up audio and video of her doing it on the Phil Donahue show. If u have a big TV with nice audio, I swear her voice just shimmers all the way through the documentary. I just thought to bring some light to your day.
Thank you for erasing Growltiger from existence.
It's what he deserves
Gowltiger is toooo long. I love him doing Pekes & Pollicles now.
It's my sworn duty to eradicate Growltiger
But what about that beautiful operatic duet?
I love Growltiger's Last Stand!!!!!! Its probably my favorite!
I heard in the original 1982 production, Mungojerrie and Rumpleteaser were puppets conjured up by Mistofolees
One little tidbit: on the chorus repeat of "Memory" after Moments of Happiness, the cast sings the backphrasing/syncopated phrasing that Betty did on "enter in" - I noticed this because in the original London cast, you don't hear them doing that. I wonder where that change happened. Had to be somewhere in the early part of the Bway run. It's written as just eighth notes just like the melody in the orchestration.
OK, I recognize Stephen Bienskie's Tugger at the end of "Mr. Mistoffelees", and is that Jeffry Denman singing "Pekes & Pollicles"?
There is a complete memory reprise on UA-cam by Laurie beechman. It was shot from the audience just shortly before she passed from cancer. It’s deeply emotional
AMAZING!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH IS A BEAUTIFUL WORK!!!
Pov:0.35 the person near you has the cougth😂
i was in NY on family trip in October 1992 my mom wanted see it so on 10th anavrsiry show we went during break they doing autogrphs on stage i went up and got one.....
This is amazing!!! Is the Mr. Mistoffelees clip uploaded separately anywhere on youtube??
Жаль, что нет оригинальных Джерри и Тизы 1982 года... Версию 1991 года-то я видела
А что за Джерри и Тиза? Кого они играют/что это за персонажи?
@@wickedfan811 она имела ввиду манголджерри и рамполтиза
Gen Horiuchi had the BEST a la seconde turns of any Misto of the original run. I said it. I watched that telethon live myself on TV and had the VHS tape of it.
isn't the Heaviside layer heaven where there is no death , sorrow and you are reborn to a new life
Heaviside Layer is just where cats are reborn. Not really heaven, reincarnation instead of an afterlife.
I read that video recording of the Broadway production was filmed on July 11, 1983 and can be viewed only for research purpose. Anyone knows why?
CATS London and Broadway 1981-1982 (Full Show Bootleg)
I hate when people talk through an overture. Here, they’re still talking when the show starts. Thank for this great compilation of clips!
OMG I LOVE CATS 😻💕
Doing the Lord's work.
Here's some footage I found:
ua-cam.com/video/KsSF9yBf3PY/v-deo.html
It's not a whole lot, but I hope it helps!
1:02:47
how come every time there is a crash , Demeter says Macavity's name and why are they scurrying every time Macavity shows up
They don’t like Macavity. He’s like the bad guy in the musical.
how come out of all of the Jellicle Cats competing to go to the Heaviside Layer , why was Grizabella chosen to go to the Heaviside Layer to be reborn and why did Old Deuteronomy pick her instead of Macavity and the rest of the Jellicle Cats
She was dying. That's why she fell down in Memory (Reprise), she wasn't going to see the morning. The memory that was fading was herself.
Ultimately thats something Old Deuteronomy would know. But at a guess I would say it was because she was a person who'd taken the wrong path in life, made bad choices, regretted them deeply but then was trying to show remorse and was desperate to be accepted back into the tribe so badly that eventually on her death bed Old D takes pity on her and decides that after basically after making a final plea for her life in Memory he chooses her.
during the moments of happiness song , wasn't Grizabella on top of the car listening to Jemima singing
Good luck, but half of these clips are NOT the original cast as cameras were never allowed into the theater and there were no cell phones back then. There was a great respect for live theater unlike today where performers are subjected to flash from cell phones while performing. All we have are photos , yet nice to see a few original cast members from the original cast.
aren't Old Deuteronomy , Grizabella , Munkustrap , Rum Tum Tugger , Rumpus Cat and Macavity related
it's typically thought that Macavity is the eldest son of Old Deut, Munkustrap is the middle child, and Rum Tum is the youngest. Some think Grizabella was the mother of the three, but abandoned them (and Old Deut) to pursue a life of glamour, leading to her being rejected and outcasted by the tribe. Idk abt the Rumpus Cat tho.
why does Macavity hate Munkustrap so much and why is he fighting him
i love this.
14:32 onward is my favorite part
AMAZING
I wouldn’t bother it’s not a patch on UK versions
Omg Michael gruber??
omg itn is ive been hoping to see him in a broadway production instead of the movie!!
and jacob brent?
omg bless you
they should bring this back with - Denise Spinos ( my friend from my old church ) , Walter Charles , Andy Garcia , Faye , Hugh Jackman , Tony Vincent , Meryl Streep , Ariana Grande , Ray Park , Angela Lansbury etc. maybe have Victor Garber and Kathy Bates as Jennyanydots and Gus the Theatre Cat instead since Angela Lansbury and Walter Charles passed away
what drove her family to hate her - Grizabella and Macavity - her son and the black sheep of the tribe and why did they thrown them out of the tribe
For those who want to see Growltiger on Broadway:

what if Ray Park - who played Darth Maul in Star Wars Episode 1 and Solo a Star Wars Story plays the role of Macavity the Mystery Cat instead of John Vickery
what's the real reason why they don't like both Grizabella and Macavity
I compiled all of the Original cast that I saw live at The Winter Garden Theater from UA-cam and joined them together flawlessly.
The Full Cat's Play is 2 hours 1 minute Long. My copy was recorded using my home built High Fidelity speaker system that when at full volume can be heard a full mile away from my home. Being an audiophile who knows what music should sound like, My copy is the best copy I've ever heard. I'm too afraid to upload it due to a previous case of copyright infringement record. As for you project it's sound track sounds flat, not full and robust like mine. YOU SHOULD SCRAP YOUR PROJECT AND START FROM SCRATCH.
how did you compile it? from what footage?
why do Bustopher Jones and the Rumpus Cat run away whenever Demeter says Macavity's name
Scared of him.
