Macavity The Mystery Cat | Cats The Musical

"He's the bafflement of Scotland Yard, the Flying Squad's despair
And when you reach the scene of crime Macavity's not there!"

Find out all about the master criminal cat in the song Macavity from Andrew Lloyd Webber's Cats!

From Cats (1998): Andrew Lloyd Webber's CATS, the most famous musical of all time, first exploded onto the West End stage in 1981. 'Memory', one of its many classic songs, became an instant worldwide hit. Since then CATS has smashed records and conquered the world. Using the latest technology, all the excitement, thrill, romance and intimacy of this theatrical legend has been captured on screen. Breathtaking visuals and full digital sound (that has been completely re-recorded with a seventy piece orchestra) will leave you deep into the mysterious world of CATS as you've never seen it before -- more intoxicating and magical than you could possibly imagine. With a star cast including Elaine Paige and Sir John Mills.

I love how Demeter's part in this song basically gives off the vibe of "My ex was the *worst*... but he was really hot."

[treadingwater]

I love the detail that Skimbleshanks is protecting the kittens, gesturing for them to come closer to him as he protectively stands over them.

[butterflyslinky]

It's so great to have a villain's song sung by the women's chorus.

FINALLY I DONT GOTTA WATCH IT IN TWO PARTS

[raincloud]

Grandpa cat: *gets kidnapped*
All the other cats: Ya like jazz?

[Irizzrizz]

They give off older and younger sister vibes, and the song is genius. Demeter having trauma from Macavity but still being like ”yeah but he still was kinda hot” and Bomba always being horny and describing him only with the way he looks, demeter telling us how horrible he is but at the end they both cant deny the fact hes probably pretty hot

[reina_harhar]

I will always adore how Demeter and Bombalurina's voices are different (with Demeter's being soft and smooth and loud while her sister's goes from loud to soft to loud again) but both are so synced and blend together. Both can't be more beautiful than the other, they're a package.

[MigeMaur]

Imagine turning Bombalurina into an antagonist, sacrificing Demeter, and turning the song into a solo, just to get Taylor Swift to be a cat for a few minutes. The duet between Bombalurina and Demeter is exactly what makes this song so great. But no, Tom Hooper didn't think so.
Tom Hooper wanted Taylor Swift getting lowered from the ceiling while she's drugging all the other cats.
Tom Hooper also thought "I know that the song describes in detail what Macavity looks like, but never mind that. Get me Idris Elba and make him look naked. Also, you know the part where it says "Macavity's not there"? Yeah, just forget about that line completely. Let's make it so Macavity actually IS there. ALL the fucking time! Remove the 'mystery' from the Mystery Cat, and give him lines. Lots of lines."

[StServal]

"Macavity's a ginger cat".
Oh, ok. From the looks of it, I thought Macavity's a f***ing demon cat.

[hogonalog]

"Macavity's a ginger cat, " said Dumbledore calmly.

[majogonzalez]

I like to think that in an universe where this cats are just cats, the part of 'he's broken every human law', it doesn't means he broke all the laws we as humans respect, he just broke all the laws imposed by their humans, like not breaking fragile things, steal food and that sort of mischievous things
He's just a cat that broke every human law, every law humans expect cats to respect

[josephlankford]

This musical was one I watched obsessively when I was a kid. I followed nothing, I never learned a character's name, I couldn't figure out a main character, I just knew that it was a fun musical with beautiful dances and songs. Now, as an adult, I just wanna enjoy it again.
One of the best ever, may the 2019 abomination rot in Hell.

[jimmoriarty]

Bom's smile at 3:32 as she calls Macavity a 'monster of depravity' is all I need to know how she knows all this about him.

[Whiskers]

I like that you see macavity like 3 times the entire show yet you know so much about him without him saying anything
Thank god no one tried to turn this into a movie
Especially not the crew that butchered les Mis

[RosalindPeters]

This was such a feminine awakening for me. These two lady cats and Meg from Hercules. I was obsessed!

[majogonzalez]

6:05 In one second Aeva May is enjoying the moment and then release she forgot the last 'Macavity'

[ftmikahakkinen]

The cameraman went in some....interesting camera angles.

[davidmcaninch]

What’s scary about him is that even though he doesn’t have any singing parts, all he does is his evil laugh.

[HauntedFae]

"I might mention Mungojerrie..." Rumpleteazer!

[mariacillan]

I kinda feel really bad for Demeter, honestly. Like, the acting makes it so like she was in a really toxic if not abusive relationship with Macavity, but has the tendency to go back for the D. Bombalurina knows how bad he is, but is more focused on the D. I also like to think Bombalurina's line "I know. He cheats... at cards" meant that he probably cheated on Demeter with Bombalurina, but the latter warned the former about the infidelity becaus she recognizes he's really not good for Demeter. and Demeter is grateful towards Bombalurina for waking her up from that relationship which is why they're so close with each other.
