Central Coast Music Factory, the ultimate training ground for young performers, presents it first musical for 2024 this April, Cats: The Young Performers Edition.
The Young Performers Edition of the Andrew Lloyd Webber classic tells the tale of a group of cats called the Jellical’s as they come together to make the Jellical Choice and is based upon the TS Elliot collection of poems, Old Possums Book of Practical Cats.
With two casts starring 46 incredibly talented eight to 18-year-olds, this production combines Lloyd Webber’s incredibly complex compositions with inventive and contemporary choreography and showcases the abilities of some of the Coast’s most talented youngsters.
The production will run over two weekends in the school holidays with the Memory Cast performing from April 19 to 21 and the Midnight Cast performing from April 26 to 28 at the Playground Theatre, a bespoke theatre space in Wyong purpose-built by Central Coast Music Factory.
Featuring iconic characters such as Grizabella the Glamour Cat, Rum Tum Tugger, Old Deuteronomy, and Mister Mistoffelees, these young performers bring to life a plethora of playful cats and their nocturnal escapades with enthusiasm and passion.
Cats provides a platform for both experienced and emerging performers to exhibit their talents.
The set, costumes and wigs have all been meticulously hand constructed and have created the abandoned dockyard inhabited by these spirited cats and will immerse you in their world.
Hand-painted costumes combined with individually fashioned wigs help give these cats their larger-than-life personalities and will bedazzle audiences.
The hard work and dedication of the performers, the production team and a whole host of volunteers shines through in this spellbinding staging of one of Lloyd Webbers most famous works.
Central Coast Music Factory produces two musicals a year for young performers, cabaret shows and is a training ground including a theatre program, singing and instrument tuition and teaching at a level and style that heightens individual’s sense of achievement whether highly skilled or beginners.
