Act one: When cats are maddened by the midninght dance

Suddenly an explosion of lights and music fills the theatre,
revealing a larger-than-life junkyard.
Probing cat lights tear across the darkened landscape of bottles and boxes,
briefly catching the darting image of a running feline.

One by one, the curious cats emerge. Tonight is the one special night each year
when the tribe of Jellicle Cats reunites to celebrate who they are.
The catsemerge singing of their unique abilities and special
traits in a fusion of poetry and dance.
