About:
Based on T. S. Eliot’s Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats, the show is set amongst a larger- than-life junkyard playground and is alive with our favourite feline characters including Rum Tum Tugger, Mr. Mistoffelees, Macavity, Jennyanydots, Old Deuteronomy, Grizabella and Skimbleshanks.

The Jellicle Cats come out to play on one special night of the year – the 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.

Munk looks so offended that someone doesn't know what a Jellicle Cat is and it's so oddly hilarious to me lmao

[Chanel_Number]

Flash back to a 9 yr old me jumping and dancing around in the middle of my living room with this DVD on replay!

[scarlett]

That last "What's a Jellicle cat?" Sounds _so_ offended.

[AylaHemora]

I came to scrub and cleanse myself from the 2019 movie trailer the only way I know how... by reliving the REAL Cats experience I know and love

[edaj]

2:10 the amount of times this man changes his facial expression

[daphne-bai]

I like trawling through comments about how attractive the actors are so I can justify my massive childhood crush on Mistoffolees, Munkustrap, Victoria and Rumpleteazer. Yeah I guess I was bi all along

[alonglongkumer]

Looks super hard! To be running around all the time, making leaps and doing cart wheels when at the same time singing Broadway stuff. Man.

[sugarlyssgum]

I was and am still in love with this musical. I use to do the entire routine when I was a child.

[jonquilgemstone]

What's. A Jellicle. Cat?! >:O!

[daphne-bai]

I love watching this cast so much!! This was the first production I ever saw (sadly, I never got to see the show live) and the way they perform the choreography is just breathtaking. It’s so fun to see great dancers perform complex choreography that, if you yourself were to try doing, you’d probably hurtle headlong into your fellow dancers.

[S-CB-SL-Animations]

At 2:03, they looked like they were going to dab! But almost...

[luisjavierrivaslopez]

Is the best Musical made in the history

There's a man over there with a look of surprise,
As much as to say, "Well now how about that!"
Do I actually see with my own very eyes
A man who's not heard of a Jellicle Cat?
What's a Jellicle cat?
What's a Jellicle cat?

2:09 Gus's voice sounds heavenly here, but also, I always die laughing at how offended they all get, especially Munk who rarely gets angry but here he is completely pissed off! 🤣

[chummanki]

Cats is the best Andrew Lloyd Webber musical!! A timeless classic, with funny plotlines and will be an animated blockbuster! !!

[abic]

If I was in this number I would for sure be Deuteronomy at the back pointing at everything

[littledeadmeasmr]

When I was little me and my fam seen this live as much as we could (no joke! we loved it!!) and when we got the video tape, we watched the heck out of it!! Absolutily LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS MUSICAL!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[이효령-xs]

Where did rum tum tugger's mane?that furry thing that is on his shoulder?its missing!

[willfomes]

When I sleep I hug my pillow like it’s Old Deuteronomy.

[lonelyscarygirl]

Was that young Grizabella in the thumbnail?
