Stuart James — Theater Critic

Matthew Caputo gave an incredibly joyous performance as Skimbleshanks. On-stage train and all, he threw himself into the role with infectious energy, bringing plenty of charm and character to one of the production’s most playful numbers. As Demeter and Bombalurina, Millie O’Connell and Katie Dunsden delivered strong vocals throughout, with their performance of Macavity: The Mystery Cat both sounding and looking gorgeous. Jet Yau’s Mr Mistoffelees was reimagined as a breakdancing cat, and his performance featured some of the most controlled and impressive movement I’ve seen.
