UK Tour 2016/Score

The 2016 UK Tour was based off the London Revival.

General features of the score:


 * Babygriz is in the opening


 * Jellylorum and Jemima's lines are cut in the Grizabella reprise


 * Mistoffelees does not sing in his song


 * Munkustrap does most of the fighting against Macavity, and Demeter comforts Munkustrap after the fight

Changes towards the end of the 2016 Run:


 * The ensemble echoed Demeter's alarmed cry of "Macavity?!" (kept in the international run too)

Changes from the 2017 Run:


 * Street Cat Tugger was reverted to the original Rockstar version


 * "Pekes and Pollicles" in Act 1 was replaced by a short "Macavity" preview that is performed by Demeter and Bombalurina, though not to the usual tune of "Macavity the Mystery Cat". The Macavity preview ends with Bombalurina saying "like a snake", and the ensemble echoing her. The cats (except Old Deuteronomy and Munkustrap) then run off the stage, and this leads to the Jellicle Ball sequence.


 * "Pekes and Pollicles" replaces "Growltiger's Last Stand" in Act 2, as a performance by Gus, Munkustrap, and the ensemble. After Gus reminisces about playing the Great Rumpus Cat, Old Deuteronomy tells him that he could do it again, and so the cats help Gus relive his glory days. The reprise of "Gus, the Theatre Cat" that followed "Growltiger's Last Stand", as the audience were brought out of the flashback and back into the present, is cut, as this version of "Pekes and Pollicles" is not a flashback scene; it's when Gus gets to play the Great Rumpus Cat one last time.

Changes for the 2020 Run:
 * The "heathen Chinese" line in the Pekes and the Pollicles was replaced with "foreign Chinese"
 * The solo lines in the Prologue will be reworked in the way it was performed in the U.S. since 1982, conducted by Kristen Blodgette.
 * Mistoffelees will sings the first chorus of Invitation alone, with no second chorus.
 * Munkustrap will sing the second verse for "The Old Gumbie Cat" alone, and Bill Deamer's choreographed tap number will be reverted back to the full original tap number, including the "Rule Britannia" section.
 * "Pekes and Pollicles" will be moved back to Act 1 and will be followed by short "Macavity" preview that is performed by Demeter and Bombalurina, though not to the usual tune of "Macavity the Mystery Cat". The Macavity preview ends with Bombalurina saying "like a snake", and the ensemble echoing her. The cats (except Old Deuteronomy and Munkustrap) then run off the stage, and this leads to the Jellicle Ball sequence.
 * The key for the prelude of Memory will be A#, the same key for its full version.
 * "Growltiger's Last Stand" will be restored in the way before the third UK tour opened, including the Aria and all of the sword-fight music.
 * The beginning of the Macavity fight will be restored.
 * Mistoffelees will sing the second verse in his song after his dance break, and his number's key will increase to F#.
