Cats US Tour 2023

I’m going to go through each Cat I felt was really amazing in this performance and then go through my thoughts on the piece as a whole under the cut :3

TLDR: It was great, see it if you’re able to.

Not going over the parts I didn’t feel as strongly about because it makes me feel bad even though they’ll never see it. 

Bombalurina (ERICA LEE CIANCIULLI) - Amazing, really embodied the sexy, jazzy vibes I think of when I think of Bomba. Really kept her character the entire show and was a joy to watch with Demeter in the Macavity duet. 10/10

Cassandra (LEXY BITTNER) - Slinky, mysterious everything you want in a Cassandra. Loved that she’s lit upas well when she’s Misto’s assistant. 9/10

Demeter (NORA DEGREEN) - She was great, I felt her worry with macavity and her safety with munk and bomba. Loved watching her interact with the kitties. 

Grizabella (TAYLER HARRIS) - NO NOTES she’s perfect. 10/10

Mungojerrie (BRIAN CRAIG NELSON) - This man kept his character the entire time. Not once when I looked a t him did he not have a stupid ass grin on his face. 10/10

Munkustrap (KADE WRIGHT) - LOVED HIM AS MUNKU. Great presence. He knows who the hell munk is. Would be GLAD to have him as the ~new munk~ in a new movie. 10/10

Peter/Bustopher Jones/Asparagus (JOHN ANKER BOW) - adorable as Gus and hilarious as Bustopher. it’s giving very much rumpus cat. 9/10.

Plato/Macavity (SAM BUCHANAN) - THIS BOY IS HELLA THICK. The fight between him and munk was great. threw him like a rag doll. Didn’t over play it, which is great. Was very cute with Vicky in the Jellicle ball scene. Baby 9/10

Sillabub (SAM BELLO) - beautiful voice and paired excellently with Griz, their short duet give me goose bumps. 9/10

Skimbleshanks (JOHN ZAMBORSKY) - Great, loved him, gave me train cat on a mission, no notes, would trust him to make sure I wasn’t bothered by mice. Also gave me orange cat one braincell.  10/10

Victor/Old Deuteronomy (CAMERON SCHUTZA) - IF A NEW CATS MUSICAL VIDEO COMES OUT I WANT HIM AS OLD D!!! 100/10!!

Victoria (YUKA NOTSUKA) - Graceful, beautiful, also baby. 10/10

As a whole: I really loved that they went back to most of the original choreography but the changes make a helluva lot of sense and I enjoyed some of them a lot more than the original, tbh. Overall a totally great time and I loved it. If you have a chance I highly suggest you try to see this cast if you can. This cast is amazing. Not once did I hear them out of breath the entire 2 hour show. All of them were SUPERB dancers. Sound production was also excellent and the live band never missed.

Nixon in China -- Princeton Festival at McCarter Theatre (Matthews)

Nixon in China — Princeton Festival at McCarter Theatre (Matthews)

The Princeton Festival production of “Nixon in China” exhilarates because it succeed on both artistic and intellectual levels.

Alice Goodman’s libretto is unafraid to delve into complexities of history, diplomacy, philosophy, and personality to create a complete picture that is also clear and thought-provoking.

Goodman portrays some of the most important figures of the late 20th century — Richard…
