Please send photos over! I love to see local theatre productions, especially if they turn out well. I assume you play Bustopher? And maybe Gus and Growltiger, too?

I am not also gus/growltiger, that is a separate char...actually we are in intermission now, wow, its tiring. we have done something slightly different with addressing of cats, and made it a male ensemble piece. the lines are split between deuty, gus, misto, busto, skimble,Munkus and macavity. we also dropped the whole deuty getting kidnapped thing...we thought it was kinda stupid

But then how do you introduce Mr Mistoffelees ? His song is directly linked with Old Deut's kidnapping...
"We have to find Old Deuteronomy... You ought to ask Mister Mistoffelees.." and so on.

Same with Macavity ?

we intro misto by the following:


tugger: Macavity...HA! I know of a much cooler cat, and I'm not talking about myself. I am talkin about magical mister mistoffelles, he's a real scat cat. and he knows how to get a party started. the greatest magician has something to learn from mr mistoffelees conjuring turn

Interesting... so does Macavity get to do anything devious, to live up to his song and all?

he does two things, he shatters the ming vase in mungo & Rumple, and we make a human train in Skimbleshanks, and he jumps down, breaking it apart

Oh, a DVD? Is it being sold to the public? Or is it just a special thing for the cast and crew members of your production?

I can't wait to see the photo's! ^_^

Veel Liefs,
Jemima Very Happy
bustopher_burger

it's only for our cast and crew, but if we haven't sold them all in about 2 years, they will go on sale to the public. thats what happened with jekyll and hyde...we did that 2 years ago, and I wasn't in it, but our director is selling one to me
Drumdraper

Maybe you could post the DVD on youtube.com or something like that.

So he's less criminal mastermind and more troublemaker?
bustopher_burger

I guess so...he also walks around and just acts pissed off
