i was pretty excited when i got free tickets to watch CATS - the musical with Steph. i have heard fantasic reviews about it and it's been going on like fooreeverrr. however being an oldie in the head (
according to Steph), there was a lot of reluctance when we heard it finished just before 11 and it was a work night.
we had to do the touristy thing and take a picture in front of the GIANT poster
apart from knowing it had cats, i had no idea what the show was about. so when everything started and i couldn't really hear what they were singing, i got a lil bored. the lady next to me was so cute, she nudged me when the cats came close to our seats... she was soooo excited :)
he actually stood still and posed for my camera
the second half was much better and i started to enjoy it much more (
maybe coz i had ice cream during the interval and was satisfied :D). there were different costumes, there was comedy and after a while, i kinda understood where the story was heading. oh and of course i finally knew a song they sang "memories" which made it even more enjoyable.
i reckon i would have enjoyed it more if i knew the music. i sang along all the songs when i watched the musical for lion king ^_^ . D reckons i soooooo not
CULTURE, that's why i didn't enjoy it as much as everyone else did -_- i think he's right! hahahah
we have plans to catch West Side Story in July, so should probably listen to the soundtrack before catching the musical... maybe in due time i will be very culture *grin*
