“CATS…THE MUSICAL (YOUNG ACTOR’S EDITION)
CATS…THE MUSICAL (Young Actor’s Edition) is a meow-tastic, one-hour adaptation of one of Broadway’s longest-running hits, brought to life by the creative genius of Andrew Lloyd Webber. It is specifically designed to enchant young audiences and their families. This purr-fectly delightful show offers a delightful escape from reality, inviting everyone to step into the whimsical world of cats, where they can express their emotions through amazing costumes, makeup, enchanting songs and captivating dances.
Don’t miss the opportunity to be a part of this enchanting feline fantasy. Performances are Friday, December 1 & 8 at 7:00 p.m., Saturday, December 2 & 9 at 2:00 and 7:00 p.m. and Sunday, December 3 & 10 at 2:00 p.m. at the Brewery Arts Center Performance Hall in Carson City.
In WHCT’s production, over 80 of Northern Nevada’s most talented young actors (ages 7-19) inhabit the world of CATS. The stage transforms into an oversized junkyard playground lived in by an array of enchanting felines, each with their own unique charm. From the sassy Rum Tum Tugger to the mysterious Macavity, the magical Mr. Mistoffelees to the lovable Jennyanydots, and the steadfast Skimbleshanks to the poignant Grizabella, you’ll meet a host of unforgettable characters. These Jellicle Cats come out to play on a special night known as the Jellicle Ball. They take turns sharing their tales with Old Deuteronomy, their wise and kind-hearted leader, who faces the challenging decision of selecting one lucky Cat to ascend to The Heaviside Layer and begin a brand-new Jellicle life.
CATS has left its paw prints all over the world, gracing the stages of over 30 countries and speaking to audiences in 16 different languages. More than 73 million people worldwide have been enchanted by this whimsical masterpiece. The original Broadway cast recording received a well-deserved Grammy Award for Best Cast Album. And, of course, Andrew Lloyd Webber’s magnificent musical score includes the iconic and heartwarming song “Memory,” cherished by audiences and covered by more than 150 artists, from the likes of Barbra Streisand to Liberace to Barry Manilow.
