Cats at Buyers Theatre

This blew me away! Saw Cats 2 times in the 80’s at the Fox! They were just as good! Love the theatre and Cats! Amazing! ... Read more

Almost perfect!

This show is 100% worth seeing. While there were a few technical hiccups, the actors recovered from them remarkably! The dancing was basically perfect and the general vibe of each cat felt correct. Memory was beautifully sung, and I especially liked Mistoffilies performance! Tugger remained the bisexual icon he’s always been- turn up the gay a little!!! It’s 2023! Just a few cons- I’m not sure how I feel about putting white makeup on your black actors faces. Seems like you could adjust the pallet a bit. Additionally, the woodwinds seemed to either not be loud enough or skipping notes. Maybe I’m the only one who noticed since I know this music very well. Some of the cats I know to be middle aged were played by like 22 year olds and I could very much HOWEVER I still think this is well worth your time and money. It is faithful to what Cats is meant to be. Wonderful job!! ... Read more

Broadway Worthy!

I saw Cats at the Peace Center in Greenville last night. It was remarkable in all respects. Rum Tum Tugger (Hank Santos) stole the show, but there were other thieves on stage as well. Grizabella sang the showstopping "Memories" with a beauty I can only compare to the performance I saw on Broadway by Betty Buckley. The Dance Team was a standout, and Old Deuteronomy and Gus , as good as can be. I have seen this musical on stage and in the theater, but this performance was worth the price of a ticket. If you are anywhere near this national touring company version do yourself a favor and see the show. I thought I had seen Cats before, but in Greenville last night I saw it again for the very first time. ... Read more
