Cats — I could take it or leave it, but my daughter is obsessed. She has the DVD and has practically worn it out from watching it so many times.When my husband and I went to see it live, he leaned over to me after a couple of songs and whispered “What the hell is this?” Hee.

i agree…cats wasn’t that stellar. but it was a good way to spend an evening and, uhm, wow on the weird costuming!

i enjoyed wicked much more! oh, and i just saw jersey boys–i recommend that, too.

So I’m sensing a Patrick Dempsey theme here–maybe you should get a Grey’s Anatomy meme together. I sense it would be popular.

I’ve seen Cats and I’ve seen Phantom, both were awesome, but since I’m lame at following storylines during plays (I’m a visual learner, not a verbal one), I read up on the story beforehand. And yes, I imagine it would’ve been hard to figure out for anyone!
Definitely helped me to have a cheat sheet. And great list of stuff for the year. hmm…

I’ve never seen Cats but I’ve seen the concert thing on tv and I was just not impressed. I don’t particularly like any of the songs and the cat costumes creep me out.

Happy New Year to you too! Hope it’s a great one

I’m with you, I didn’t love Cats although I thought the dancing was good, but like I said, I didn’t LOVE it…

Happy New Year!!

I wish many great things for you and your family (and hopefully bigger family) this year!

Happy New Year.

My mother gave my the TS Eliot book when I was a kid. I liked it, but I’ve never seen the musical.

Looking for a plot in Cats is a sure way to ruin it for yourself. I’m not a big fan of the song Memory but I love, love, love Skimbleshanks the Railway Cat.

I have to say, I don’t get the Patrick Dempsey thing. People act like he’s so hot now. He still looks like the teenager who played all the geeky roles to me.

I liked Cats when I was a kid but not so much now and I never liked the live show (some of the songs I still like but only from the British production). I’m not an Andrew Lloyd Weber fan at all. Some of his songs I like but there isn’t one show that he’s done that I go, “Now THAT’S musical theater!!”
