Paramount Theatre will be staging the beloved Broadway musical Cats once again this season. Beginning on Wednesday, April 30, the show will run through Sunday, June 15.
Inspired by a collection of poems by T.S. Eliot, Cats, the iconic musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber, is a well-loved fantastical journey into the world of Jellicle Cats. Long-time subscribers of Paramount will recall our acclaimed rendition in 2014. Now Paramount’s creative team has re-envisioned this classic and brings a new layer and energy to the clandestine world of felines. With a whole circus tent full of notable cats, you’ll get swept up in the spectacle of contortion, juggling, and aerialists who embody the spirit of Mungojerrie, Bustopher Jones and more.
The latest production explores timeless themes of identity and redemption, while keeping the unforgettable music with stirring songs like “Memory,” and “The Rum Tum Tugger.” More than 40 years since its release on Broadway, Cats is back to enchant a new generation of audiences with its imaginative storytelling and groundbreaking circus flair.
Full of captivating dance, rousing music, singsong poetry, and now, astounding circus, the show won the Tony for Best Musical and Best Original Score. It ranks as number 11 on the all-time Best Selling Broadway Musical roster. Full of magic, dance, and feats of fancy, you will not want to miss this show.
Tickets are available here.
Paramount Theatre is located at 23 East Galena Boulevard in Aurora.
