West Bromwich Operatic Society return to Wolverhampton Grand Theatre this month with their production of the classic Andrew Lloyd Webber musical, Cats, from 14th to 18th May.

Following two hugely successful productions in 2018 - Priscilla Queen Of The Desert and West Side Story - the theatre group return to Wolverhampton with their new production, which they're excited to bring to the stage. 

Adapted from TS Eliot’s Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats, on just one special night of the year, all Jellicle cats meet at the Jellicle Ball where Old Deuteronomy, their wise and benevolent leader, makes the Jellicle choice and announces which of them will go up to The Heaviside Layer and be reborn into a whole new Jellicle life.
 
With popular characters including 'Old Deuteronomy' played by Tim Jones, 'Rum Tum Tugger' by Dan Smith, 'Macavity' by Harry Simpkin and 'Grizabella', the part immortalised by Elaine paige, brought to life by Tasheka Coe. Cats is directed by Ben Cole, with musical direction with Adam Joy and choreography by Claire Flavell. Costumes for the production have been created by Leo’s Theatrical Costumiers.
 
Tickets for the show are on sale now and can be bought by visiting the Grand Theatre in person, calling 01902 42 92 12 or online at grandtheatre.co.uk.
