About Cats(musical)
Effie
First seen on Broadway in 1982, *Cats* became a defining artifact of New York’s 1980s megamusical era and remains one of the city’s longest-running productions. The piece is sung-through, built from T. S. Eliot’s feline poems and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s score, and follows the Jellicle cats as they gather to choose one among them for renewal in a next life. Now at the Broadhurst Theatre in the concert-style *CATS: The Jellicle Ball*, it reads less like plot-driven drama than a ritual of character portraits.
