One of the most successful shows in the Wichita Theatre's history is back by popular demand!! Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber | Based on Old Possum's Book Of Practical Cats | By T. S. Eliot Based on the universally popular poetry of T.S. Eliot, CATS tells the story, in song and dance, of the annual gathering of Jellicle cats at which time one special cat is selected to ascend to the Heaviside layer. A true musical theatre phenomenon, CATS opened at London's New London Theatre on May 11, 1981 and ran for a record-setting 21 years. CATS's London success was nearly matched on Broadway where it ran at the Wintergarden Theatre for just over 18 years.
