Stockholm 1987

On 4th September 1987, Cats opened at the China Theatre in Stockholm, Sweden. The production ran more than a year, until 18th December 1988. The production was then revived in Gothenburg in September 1989.

Production Specifics
This production was one of the most successful shows in Sweden, running to a total of 324 performances.

Theatre owner, Hasse Wallman, invited the creative team from the Oslo production to mount a production in Stockholm.

The production was non-replica; with a new set and makeup designs. Andrew Lloyd Webber was apparently not particularly fond of the Swedish set.
