Director: David Mallet
Actors: John Mills, Ken Page, Elaine Paige

The longest-running musical in the history of West End and Broadway theatre is now available as a special DVD presentation. For the FIRST TIME EVER an Andrew Lloyd Webber show has been specially filmed and made available on DVD. With a star cast including Elaine Paige and Sir John Mills, and its stunning production values, CATS will no doubt set a new standard for the filming of all future musicals. Andrew Lloyd Webber's CATS, the most famous musical of all time, first exploded onto the West End stage in 1981. 'Memory', one of its many classic songs, became an instant worldwide hit. Since then CATS has smashed records and conquered the world. Using the latest technology, all the excitement, thrill, romance and intimacy of this theatrical legend has been captured on screen. Breathtaking visuals and full digital sound (that has been completely re-recorded with a seventy piece orchestra) will lead you deep into the mysterious world of CATS. CATS - as you've never seen it before - more intoxicating and magical than you could possibly imagine.

Great to see this movie just as I remember the stage show. Strange that something with virtually no story line can be so entertaining. But then, if you're a cat lover nothing more needs to be said. The summing up of different cat's characters from the poems is masterly. The demands on the singer/dancers are great, and they respond nobly. And then there's the wonderful costumes. A unique theatre experience, never forgotten.

I found it slow to start and not up to the usual standard of musicals.

Quality of production reasonable. Type of music and songs perhaps only favoured at that era.
