CATS Begins Performances This Week at Wagon Wheel Center for the Arts
Christian J. Collins, Reagan Kern, and Evan Smith lead the cast of CATS in Warsaw, Indiana.
Wagon Wheel Center for the Arts is bringing Andrew Lloyd Webber's beloved musical Cats to its iconic in-the-round stage this summer, transforming the theater into a larger-than-life Jellicle playground through June 13.
One of the longest-running musicals in Broadway history, Cats follows a tribe of Jellicle cats as they gather for their annual Jellicle Ball, where one cat is chosen to ascend to the Heaviside Layer and begin a new life.
Featuring a score by Andrew Lloyd Webber and based on T.S. Eliot's Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats, the musical includes such memorable songs as "Memory," "Mr. Mistoffelees," and "Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats."
The production stars Christian J. Collins as Munkustrap, Reagan Kern as Victoria, and Evan Smith as Mr. Mistoffelees, alongside a company of performers bringing the musical's colorful feline characters to life.
Wagon Wheel's intimate theater-in-the-round setting offers audiences a unique perspective on the musical, placing them in the center of the action as the Jellicle cats weave through the space. The immersive staging allows patrons to experience the spectacle, choreography, and music from every angle.
The production is part of Wagon Wheel's summer repertory season, which is known for its fast-paced professional environment. Cast members rehearse upcoming productions while simultaneously performing others, creating a rigorous schedule that mirrors the demands of the professional theater industry.
Cats runs through June 13 at Wagon Wheel Center for the Arts in Warsaw, Indiana. Tickets are available now.
Wagon Wheel Center for the Arts is a nonprofit organization dedicated to enriching lives through professional theater, arts education, and community engagement.
