We watched CATS the musical at the CCP last Saturday.
We were seated at the Balcony II (topmost part), and since I have an imagined acrophobia, i thought i would not enjoy the show (well, partly i didn't and it's not because of that heheh).
The performances was great -- the singing and dancing, and of course Lea was awesome! What a MEMORY! Sadly, the story isn't. I think it needs to connect more with the audience, make them a 'part' of the play. Good thing some actors, like 'rockstar' and the 'sirkera' adlib-ed (via body language), and elicited some reactions from the audience.
verdict: 6 out of 10 ngiyawsss
ps:
do not buy the disposable binoculars that they are selling (lest u want to have migraine)
i do not know the cats' names
i snoozed two times
i clapped for their performances (twas really GALING!)
i wanted to give them a standing O, but my fear of heights prevented me
