Welcome to the Munkuholic club I heard that Nadja Solovieva is now playing Grizabella. Is that right? I'm asking because I saw her some times as Griz here in Germany and she was fab. |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
yeah it's true
but actually i saw her only ones - on last week, she played 3 times yet i don't like it, you know we have Lena Charkviany befor her and she was amazing!! as for Nadja.. i don't like her make-up! it's not like it was i mean all our cats have london make-up, and she is not. and i don't like her voice! and she sing with great broad!
thanks !
now you have
i know that way, but i have these photos only on my computer! and there is no them in internet hmm but some is! like theese it's press-demonstration (actually now our Rampl not so chubby)
and now we have another mango! and i'm so happy about it - he is brilliant! and he is cute in make-up not like this mango on theese photos
also Rumpl have so grat voice!!!
don't like theese photos Vicka (rumpl) is so nice in real and in make-up if you like it i'll show more |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |

Marat (skimbl) is very good and even purrfect in this role! but i think he is not very cute in make up. it's very dark imho

Здравствуйте! С приездом! Меня зовут 'Кассандра'. Я люблю CATS!
Nice to meet you, Kotenok_gaff. Sorry for my primitive Russian skills. I studied it a few years ago, but I can't remember much. Welcome to the boards! I know we're all excited to hear from a Russian fan. I look forward to talking with you. Do you have a way of getting your photos on the Internet? We have photo sites like Photobucket.com where you can upload pictures from your computer to the Internet, then you can post them here. If you'd like, I can give you my e-mail address, you can send the photos to me, and then I can put them up here for you. Just let me know. Hope you enjoy it here! |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
also i have a bootleg - audio of our cats as for voices -our Jemima best in the world! and as for munkus - now his make-up (thanks to my advices
|
||||||

Do you like the Russian translation of the show?
Often native speakers don't like the translations of the show because the puns and poetry tricks from the original English version don't translate over. |
||||||
| Lady Jemima |
Oh my gosh, I'm positively drooling over all these gorgeous pics! WOW! Thank you so much for posting them, Kotenok_gaff! | ||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
it's funny but translation is so great! my friend live in NY and when he heard our version he says that it's great i mean it sounds with music very very good just like english version because our languages are alike in sounding
pity that i can't attach photos i can send it to some one who have ICQ it's our Vic
and it's Vanya
and this is my sister as tantomail (don't shure in spelling) i desided to make a kitten from her http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia1.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia2.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia3.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia3a.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia4.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia5.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia6.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia7.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia8.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia9.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia10.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia11.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia12.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia13.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia14.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia15.jpg http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Photos/Jul_tant/Julia16.jpg |

Oh my goodness! I'm going to die of happiness! So many awesome pictures! I'm posatively drooling over the ones of Coricopat (oh, where is my dear Becky when I need her?)... and over Cassandra's makeup... goodness... | ||||||
| Cassandra |
Here are some photos Kotenok_gaff wanted me to post for her.
This is Kotenok_gaff, Vanya (Munkustrap) and her friend Lilya.
Here is Kotenok_gaff, Vanya, Pasha (Rum Tum Tugger), Lilya, and a fan from the CatsClub in Russia. |

| Spanish_Rumple |
Hey Kotenok, I love those pictures from your production, the Jellicles look great!! By any chance do you have close pictures from either Macavity and Jemima??
My boyfriend loves the character of Jemima, I'd love to show it to him On the other hand, I'm glad that finally Spain is copied by an other country...hehehe that means that we're not so bad after all...heh |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
what do you mean? we don't copied Spain version we havww a copy of London version as for pictures i send many (abd with Jemima and Macavity too) to Cassandra, she said that post it here in friday |
||||||
| Belle |
But Spain also had london designs, but the brighter colours like the Russian? I love the designs, they're so vibrant, brighter than london was. | ||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
yeah and Vanya is Mankus but costums are different from ours for exaple - mankus! some time ago on MTV was programm about dances and there was our cats - but very pity that almost all was cut there was 2 songs - mango & rumple and tugger so the video in program was very short you can download it here also i have video - whith our singer ( and her pronunciation was soooooooo bad!! even i can talk better here 2 program about dancing - Tugger and mango and rumpl and terrible memory sorry but audio and video streams not very concur |
||||||
| Spylfyr |
Thank you sooo much for posting all the beautiful photos and clips Kotenok_gaff!!! |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
i'm very glad that you like it! may be you say something about it? what do you like and what not? | ||||||
| MrsJemimaMistoffelees |
Those are very beautiful pictures of the Moscow cast! Do you happen to have any close-up shot's of Jemima? She's my favorite Veel Liefs, Jemima |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
i told you that i have many pictures, and send it to Cassandra i think she wanted to post it here today
there was many great phitis with Jemima |
||||||
| Spylfyr |
Well, the costumes look like copies of the London production except for slight differences. I generally prefer it when productions take a slightly more original spin on the designs, but the Russian production is still very lovely, and the costumes are quite stunning and vibrant |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
as for me i don't like skimble's make up very much cause he looks a little angry in it i like dvd make-up of scimble as for costumes i like that we have a copy of london. and don't like when in other countrys make up is si diferent from original that i even cant understand who is where!and they even don't look like cats as for Nadejda - i saw her only once - and she played only 3 or 2 times grizbella. Tommorow i'm going to see cats again and may be she will be there/ now i even don't know it because changes in afisha is so often! some of actors are ill now (you know it's quite cold here and the day after tommorow i'm going to see Romeo and Juliette (not shure in spelling) i actually didn't see it yet because all my free time was spending on cats |
||||||
| Cassandra |
FYI: I'm waiting to talk with Kotenok_gaff again before I post the rest of her pictures. | ||||||
| MrsJemimaMistoffelees |
*Gasp* You must tell me how it is! R&J is my favorite musical ^_^ I hope you enjoy it! Veel Liefs, Jemima |
||||||
| Cassandra |
Yay, pictures! Kotenok_gaff has been very generous in sharing all these Russian photos. Some of them are so gorgeous. There are quite a few taken by some photojournalists, and they're more like art! Enjoy, and I will be posting more later (as Kotenok_gaff is sending me more as we speak). *edited to remove link* |

| Spanish_Rumple |
I've been trying to download those Tugger and Mungojerrie and Rump. videos. They downloaded correctly but I can't see them, they are supposed to be kept somewhere in a folder in my laptop and I can't find them... And I'm not able to see the third link |
||||||
| Spylfyr |
Wow... |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
o you are always wellcome!! Spanish_Rumple - i don't know why can't see it |
||||||
| Spanish_Rumple |
codek? what is that?... they open up as nero media player but no image is seen. I have Quicktime Player and also Windows Media Player, but I don't know what can I do so that they can be open in those other programmes because it seems that nero media is the one who is predetermined.
So... as a resume.... aaaargh I don't know my own computer... it's so frustrating...hahaha If any of you wanna help little Spanish_Rumple (ex Psyche Cat), I've got Windows XP. |

| Kotenok_gaff |
if you want to laugh you can listen how vanya sing miss sunshine from chicago http://musicals.ru/ru_pers/ozhogin/MissLu4ezarnaja.wma when i show it to my friend she said - oMG it's a women!! and here is some else his songs http://musicals.ru/ru_pers/ozhogin/svadbasoek.wma http://musicals.ru/ru_pers/ozhogin/svadbasoek2.wma it's from musical wedding of jays and this is from musical Nord-Ost http://english.nordost.ru/multimedia/Audio/page/0/file/120/Romashov.mp3 and here (!!!) you can listen Jennyanydots by Vanya but it's a bootleg it's a secret http://simbapride.ru/Kotenok_gaff/Cats_Rus/04%20-%20ТеÑÑÑка%20коÑка%20.mp3 i hope you like it! |
||||||
| MrsJemimaMistoffelees |
Yes, I agree that act two starts to slow down a bit. It's not really consisitant like act one, but it's still good! Who did you see as Juliette? Evgeniya Ryabzeva is my favorite Russian Juliette. Sasha Babenko must be new to the cast! Unless he was an understudy for both Pavel Belkov and Aleksandar Babenko. Anyway, thanks for sharing! ^_^ Veel Liefs, Jemima |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
well it was Sophia Nigaradze
and her voice is amazing |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
aaa i don't go on cats hole week i think i'll go on this last suturday i was on cats twice! it's like "déjà vu" When Vanya saw me in second time he whispered inmy ear it and other actors was amazed too |
||||||
| Ann |
Yeah,it's so sad that our CATS will be closed |
||||||
| pkitty663 |
WHAT?...All for stupid Mama Mia?...I vote Cats to stay there lol. | ||||||
| Natasha |
I've heard that Cats in Moscow will not be closed yet. There are tickets to book up to 26th February... Who knows?.. | ||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
yay!!!! cats not closed 5 february ! it's continued untill 26 february | ||||||
| Ann |
Life is beautiful!!!! CATS will go till 26 february!!!!! I'm so happy!!! No MAMA!!!! |
||||||
| Mungostoffelees |
Wow, thankyou ever so much for the great pictures Kotenok_gaff! You really are a star, a generous, lovely one at that! x.x.x.x. |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
no problem!!
i also have some pics wait - i think i'll make a photoalbum for all |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
http://foto.mail.ru/list/kotenok_gaff/ here is many fhotos
tommorow i'll upload more |
||||||
| Pounce |
I bit ironic because Mamma Mia! replaced CATS at Winter Garden on Broadway.
Same sort of thing happened to CATS on Broadway. But it's still too bad. I'd have liked to have seen it have a longer run. Mamma Mia! should go over well with the Russian audience because I think ABBA was popular even in Russia. It's a fun show with really good music but if you think CATS' plot is thin, wait until you see Mamma Mia! |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
well i listened mamma mia, but i can't imagine abba's songs on russian! because they've alredy started to translate it!!!
i think that 26 will not be the last day of cats i'm even sure!!! |
||||||
| Etcetera Kitten |
Heyt hose pictures are great! You're English isn't so bad, because I am French and I get nearly everything you say.
I just LOVE that Munkustrap, very lovely one. It's great that you know him! How old are you, if I may ask, and are you a girl or a guy? Because I couldn'y really tell from just what you wrote (or may be I missed something). Did you get to see Cats often, and do you like the traduction? I wish I could see it. I've seen a few clips and it all looks so lovely! Well well, hope to see you post more soon! |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
i upload now more pictures i'm a girl what means 'traduction' ? yep i goes on cats very often but not in last time 'cause i have an exams in the institute our munk is one of the most cute i think |
||||||
| Pounce |
I think she meant "translation". "Traduction" is the French word. Understandable mistake since French and English share a lot of words or the words are very close. |
||||||
| Flitterbug |
I've just been reading through this topic, and the links to the photobucket album dont work for me. (it says that morningstar05 must login to share photos) |
||||||
| pkitty663 |
yeah me too....I can't see nuthin in photobucket...please help
|
||||||
| Cassandra |
I password-protected my Photobucket account again because this topic was so old.
Any pictures that were in my account you can now see in Kotenok_gaff's photo album. |
||||||

||||||
| Alonza0 |
AHHHHH!!!!!!!!! SO MANY PICTURES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You almost gave me a heart attack!!! I was so happy I could have died!!!! LOVE PICTURES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

| Jemima57 |
I have a question about the Moscow production : is there a lot of interaction with the audience ? Do the cats run in the aisle, Tugger dancing with someone during his song, ... ? I'd be curious to know as when I saw the German Tour there was nearly no interaction - and it is also a Stage Entertainment production.
If this has already been asked sorry but I don't remember |
||||||
| Natasha |
Jemima57: Of course, there is a lot of interaction!
I have seen the show only once, and I don't remember a lot, maybe Kotenok_gaff knows it better. But I have touched Misto's hand! I felt so happy! I had been looking forward to it for a long time! |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
of course it's a lot! tugger run to audiens and dunsin' or on naming of cats on during mistofelis and many others |
||||||
| Cettie |
That is happening in Germany, too. Plus other times like during Mistoffelees and so on. Jemima57, the last times I saw it in Hannover, there was much more interaction than in Düsseldorf, espescially during Mr Mistoffelees and the final bows. |
||||||
| Jemima57 |
That's great, for in Düsseldorf I was really disappointed. I feared Stage Entertainment had taken that out from the show. Natasha you must have been so happy to touch Misto' hand ! I love interaction with the cast |
||||||
| Natasha |
Guess what???
|
||||||
| abbeycat |
oh that's fab it's playing through March!so when are you seeing it again? (how many times have you seen it now in Moscow?) | ||||||
| Natasha |
I've seen it three times already I wish it will be still playing in summer, so I will probably see it again. My parents won't let me do it until summer holidays. They think that three times is too many... |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
i've see it more than 40 times even don't know how many but i'm happy that cats go on! |
||||||
| Natasha |
Везет тебе! Продолжай в том же духе! Lucky you! |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
я не думаю что это очень хорошо писать на русском тут
кстати ты на лс не ответила - ты есть на кэтсклабе? as for actors - most of then tired from their roles |
||||||
| Ann |
I'm so Happy Happy Happy!!! I can see it again!!! Наташа, Может все таки скажешь, кто ты есть?А то нам интересно And we all say... |
||||||
| Natasha |
Kotenok_gaff, Ann, I suppose you don't know me... | ||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
но ты как-то выкладывала фотку с кэтклаба
ты там зарегена? |
||||||
| Natasha |
Kotenok_gaff, I replied your PM... | ||||||
| abbeycat |
natasha, 3 times isnt too much for an eager fan like you, you have to go and see it again...several more times infact! (you can tell your parents that from me!)i saw the show three times in a row once when i was 11.
(Wish I could come over to Russia, gather up all the Fans and have a day trip to see the show) |
||||||
| Natasha |
lol Nice idea |
||||||
| Ann |
It could be fun.. really You can try to do that I've seen our CATS only 13 times |
||||||
| Natasha |
Well... Only a month left.
In a month's time we shall say about the show "it was" instead of "it is"... |
||||||
| Pounce |
Unless I missed someone's post, wasn't last Saturday March 18 the one year anniversary of CATS in Russia? I assume they made it to one year? | ||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
yep, it was so great ! and 18 as a premiere and day when ALW was there we make very big 1 with many pictures, and other stuff and present it to actors at the end, at the same time 200 big baloons was coming from the end of hall to the stage soon will be photos on off site |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
hope you understand my english |
||||||
| Natasha |
So, farewel to Russian CATS...
*cries* I didn't see the last show... |
||||||
| Pounce |
Well Besides, you can always get the video...but it's in English of course. You might keep an eye out for stuff from the show if it is thrown out. It can have some value. |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
yes i was on the last perfomance it was so great and magic and also so sad it was the greaes perfomanses actors was crying on addressing so people too i thought i will too but i was not in the hall at the end - i saw all behind the scenes but it was sooo great! me and my freind was the last people who up on tyre! and it's so sad but now decoration goes to Holland. than back to Madrid (yay to spanish people!! i'm glad for you!) and then how th said Bogachov (he is a producer ) maybe maybe// it'll came back to Moscow |
||||||
| Spanish_Rumple |
to Madrid??? for when?? are they planning to come to Barcelona? because they have already done it in Madrid!!! (it wouldn't be fair if they went again to Madrid....sniff)
Oooooooh I'm now so much looking forward to that event.... |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
as i know - to Madrid
i know that cats was in Madrid - after that decoration was arrive here in Moscow so it end in Madrid in 2004? then it was 2005-2006 here, then 2006-2007 (i think only a year) in Holland, than 2007-2008 Madrid (may be it's just somewhere else in Spain but Bogachov sais Madrid ) and then .. may be in Moscow it's not exactly but i hope so (sorry for my bad english - i try to learn it better) |
||||||
| Spanish_Rumple |
well I don't know about the decoration, but two of the performers that were in Madrid, Jack Rebaldi and Pepe Muñoz are now acting in Cats in Germany as far as I know... I didn't know that our decoration went directly to Moscow in fact I thought that it went to Germany aswell... but no.
So in 2007 the decoration will come back here... well unless they make Cats somewhere else in Spain... I don't think that they are going to repeat it in Madrid, after all I don't think they had too much success when Cats was in Madrid because there were other productions in the theatres nearby like Singing in the rain and others. Anyway, I'll ask Hugo, maybe he knows something about that. |
||||||
| Kotenok_gaff |
i don't think that he know anything
btw who make cats in Spain? Stagw entertainment? if so and you know somebody there then you may ask him. our actors know the same as i know nap 17 - is you decoration as i know but our kitchen-range is more white |
