'The Jellicle Ball' Trailer | PAC NYC
Nobody’s said that about Andrew Lloyd Webber ’s singing-dancing feline musical since around 1984. But four decades later and it’s true again.
And, good Gus, does it ever depart. Especially bold is that the cats are no longer cats — they’re people. That’s a big swing, to say the least.Relishing the opportunity, directors Bill Rauch and Zhailon Levingston fabulously drop the show in the vibrant world of Harlem ballroom culture: a century-old tradition of fierce competitions involving themed costumes, dance and infectious attitude.
Jellicle leader Old Deuteronomy decides the winners with dramatic flair. As Old Deut, Andre De Shields’ entrance is grander than those of some European monarchs. For proud lovers of this score — count me among you — every note is played and occasionally enhanced by club beats.
