Broadway Production/Casts

Cats originally ran on Broadway between 1982 and 2000. It would seem that, rather than regular annual or biannual cast changes, actors were employed on rolling contracts so the cast changed gradually over time. As such, most of the entries only give rough time periods for when each performer started and ended their runs. If you have more information regarding specific start/end dates, please help to refine the list.
