Cast : Ron DeVito as the contrarian cat Rum Tum Tugger; Christopher Gattelli, light on his feet as the magical Mistoffelees, Randy Clements as Munkustrap. Lee A Wilkins and Maria Jo Ralabate star in a lively duet as the mischievous duo of Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer.

October 1996
Brian Noonan invests the rotund Bustopher Jones with elephantine delicacy and the geriatric Gus with asthmatic nostalgia. As Mr. Mistoffelees, Randy Andre' Davis is adorably mischievous and dances with acrobatic fluidity. And Jeri Sager's Grizabella, the fading glamour cat, is just splendid, shivering in her tattered coat and singing Memory with great purity and feeling.
