thewrongsideofeverydoor asked: Breaking character to say holy shit your blog is amazing. I don't think I've seen someone get so in-depth with CATS outside of myself and a close friend. On another note, I enjoy your headcanon about Plato and I'd like to mention the headcanon my friend came up with that Plato is actually Macavity (Not only is it the same actor and because of that Plato is missing during the fight),...

Alonzo's hips: The long awaited appreciation post
Oh, my God. They’re hypnotizing.
Yes, Alonzo, you’re totally manly. You’re, like, the manliest. Honestly. I don’t know what Bombalurina’s deal is, maybe she’s one of those lesbians or something. She’s got to be, because you, sir, are the manliest of man cats.
Seriously, look at even Pouncival’s face when Alonzo’s on his first wiggle.

lifeduringwarptime asked: You know what? You could be right! Even though the voices just sound plain odd to me, I remember reading an early script of ST where Nation was in a fancy car with Janet, and Nation starts singing the song. Hmm. Anyway, hello, I love the Magnetic Fields, too!

I love the Macavity battle so much
Or, more specifically, the order in which everyone goes after Macavity. Of course it focuses for the most part on Munkustrap, and then Alonzo, because they’re the big tough guys (alright, maybe not Alonzo with his sassy hip-waggling, but he’s the closest this play gets to a sort-of manly dude other than Munkustrap.)
But Mungojerrie’s the third one to try his hand at beating up...

Plato is a creepy shit
I used to think he was really cute, with his little mancrush on Tugger and his really neat makeup design, but something about re-watching the video recently has made me… uhh… well…
You are not looking at his face.
Everyone else is looking at his face but you are not looking at his face.
Alright, here is the delicate ingenue of the play making her first hesitant...

(lol ignore me talking about my characters)
you know i don’t think i have ever specified that duke is supposed to be cajun and while his accent is pretty light, his relatives have thicker accents
and someday i will have to figure out how to write that
it is literally the weirdest accent
like some unholy combination of french and hick
and i have to write it in a way that is still...

So Old Deuteronomy's kind of a jerk, honestly
Gus, the Theatre Cat: A once-dignified old man who breaks down sobbing in front of everyone out of sheer hopelessness, because he’s old and decrepit and has no chance of ever recapturing the glory days that he lives for. Every day other than this particular one, he probably just sits around pissing on himself and shaking and waiting for Jellylorum to come around with whatever she’s...

cee-ehs:
THIS. ALL OF THIS.
It always disappoints me that this isn’t in the choreography when I see the Troika tour live.
Then again, it always disappoints me that John Partridge isn’t Tugger when I see the tour live, but I digress. The new guy is almost as good, though.
There’s just something so incredible about Partridge’s performance, over the performances I’ve seen...

lyricaldissonance asked: You just chased a post about my favorite portion of Tugger's role in the CATS video with a post about the Magnetic Fields. I couldn't click the "follow" button fast enough.

Can we just talk for a sec about RTT
And how this particular spot of the Jellicle Ball is the closest he gets to badass throughout the whole play and is kind of my favorite RTT moment other than the rest of the play.
He actually looks just intense enough to make me subscribe to the whole Munkustrap/RTT/Macavity brothers headcanon as more than just a halfhearted given.
Also, Plato’s a creepy motherfucker and I hate him but...

jllunar:
There’s actually a lot of Cats stuff that only happens in the background—and I guess that’s what makes it so awesome. You could watch if fifteen times over and still see something new each time.
Like—Pouncival “shooting” the girls in The Awful Battle of the Pekes and the Pollicles by Some Account…
This is what I adooore about the video version. I must have watched it a million...

Dead.
I never noticed before that The Rum Tum Tugger mirrors just about everything that Mistoffelees does throughout his whole song sequence and it’s adorable adfhfadkl.
(crappy gifsoup gifs ahead because I’m lazy)
I can’t do this.

I think I might actually have had a flashback
You guys may not know it, because you are all probably decent human beings who spent their childhoods playing cool video games and smoking pot and such (I don’t know what other kids did in the nineties; I was homeschooled and rarely ever saw another one close up), but CATS had a freaking huge and thriving online fandom in the late nineties/early 2ks, or at least that’s how it seemed to...
