neat. I think I was about 8 when I first saw the show with the 4th National North American Tour (the first North American tour to simplify the staging for the now defunct Growltiger sequence (yes the first 3 actually *DID* have the set for Growltiger come down from the back wall like at the Winter Garden) the 5th National Tour (2001-2012) also had a couple notable firsts, it was the first North American tour that hid the orchestra (5 piece most stops, increasing to 9 in bigger cities) like on Broadway and in '05 added an inflatable version of the set thus making it easier to travel around North America and do shorter engagements, the normal set was still used when they went outside of the US or to Hawaii)

This is the perfect vantage point to see the amazing choreography.

@@sofiarosanes9511 Gillian Lynne had the chance to develop all the dance numbers over 30 years. Every new production had little or big changes. Every movement meant something and was perfect to the music. Andy his choreography changes (because a lot of the original was still in this production) was not that musical or supported by the music.

I remembered cats existed after the movie trailer came out, also I think the first time I heard about cats was on this bedtime story website or something like that.

*EDIT: i've seen the US tour cast twice so far and in my second viewing (i wasnt paying so much attention on victoria particularly during this number the first time around) they've seemed to have gone back to the old choreography a LOT more since when this production happened, as in victoria actually doing the old choreography and movements for that part instead of just lying there. interesting, and a welcome change back to the old choreography* obviously there's factors in the new choregoraphy that i like and am okay with but it's like everytime i watch this i find more gripes with it... (to no major detriment to the revival, overall i love the cast and the production and wish i was able to see it live) 12:35 when that part kicks in, having victoria not rouse and break away from the group/be the only one moving throws me off and annoys me more than it should. and when that piano (?) at 13:00 plays, she's supposed to be like... doing something. preparing for her solo, catching the attention of the audience early while not breaking the 'trance' of the song completely-- she's a core part of it. to have her stay still like that is just an odd choice especially since it makes it so that change in tune has no function or reason. in my basic musical-watching eyes, of course. im no musician or composer or actor or anything of the sort.
