CATS Musical in Manila

Lunchbox Theatrical Productions (a UK-based group), together with the Philippines' Concertus, Inc are set to stage Cats in Manila on July 2010. (Avatar's live action movie will also be shown on July next year *yey*).  Our very own Lea Salonga will play a prominent character in this musical production as Grizabella, the "glamour cat".  She will join an international cast that will more or less come from Australia and the United Kingdom.

The musical Cats has been known as one of the longest-running in West End and Broadway history having played for 21 years and 18 years respectively.  Cats features songs composed by musical theater master Andrew Lloyd Webber (also responsible for the other musical hits such as The Phantom of the Opera and Jesus Christ Superstar)  based on Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats by T.S. Eliot. One popular song from this musical is "Memory", originally performed by Elaine Paige, a theater veteran.
