Lloyd Webber's CATS Plays The Hobby Center, Closes 4/17

By:

The Hobby Center and Broadway Across America are bringing CATS back to Houston for a limited one-week engagement. Billed as "the longest running, most popular North American touring production in history," it will close in Sarofim Hall Sunday, April 17.

There's no better way to introduce your family to the wonders of live theater than with the magic, the mystery, the memory of CATS. What began as a musical about cats after Andrew Lloyd Webber picked up a book of poems in an airport bookshop has become one of the longest running shows in Broadway's history. Winner of seven Tony Awards® including Best Musical, CATS features 20 of Andrew Lloyd Webber's timeless melodies, including the hit song, "Memory."

Webber composed the music based on the poems of T.S. Eliot. The production is directed and choreographed by Trevor Nunn and Gillian Lynne. The sets and costumes were designed by John Napier, and the lighting is designed by David Hersey.

The Hobby Center is located at 800 Bagby Street Ste. 300, Houston, TX 77002. eClub members can purchase their tickets now. General ticketing begins Wednesday, January 26 at 10 a.m. Call the box office at (713) 315-2525 or visit thehobbycenter.org for tickets.
