Grade 4 to 10 students will work as actors learning the fundamentals of musical theatre through weekly rehearsals before performing six public performances. Each performance is a one-hour full-stage musical production of CATS: Young Actors Edition.
SYNOPSIS
CATS is set amongst a larger-than-life junkyard playground and is alive with purr-fect felines, including Rum Tum Tugger, Mr. Mistoffelees, Macavity, Jennyanydots, Old Deuteronomy, Skimbleshanks and Grizabella. The Jellicle Cats come out to play on one special night of the yearthe night of the Jellicle Ball. One by one, they tell their stories for the amusement of Old Deuteronomy, their wise and benevolent leader, who must choose one of the Cats to ascend to The Heaviside Layer and be reborn into a whole new Jellicle life.
