Cats History
Broadway - 9/1992 - 11/1994 - Plato / Macavity / Rumpus Cat

Q. How does the Rumpus Cat burst through the "Cats" stage head first without splitting his skull?

A. A counterweighted jack-in-the-box fires him through a padded trap door sectioned in wedge-shaped slices. (Imagine a Titan missile erupting through a pizza.) His wig conceals a helmet. The spotlight operators, who have to keep him in their sights, say no one has leapt higher than the present Rumpus Cat, Robb Edward Morris.
