Production Details[]
The second time Cats was staged in Norway, was in 2009 at Chat Noir (Black Cat) in Oslo. Compared to the 1985 production, the costumes was redesigned, the lyrics was translated anew into bokmål and the original English names was kept instead of the Norwegian ones.
Replica touring productions have also played in Oslo in 2003 (World Tour) and 2016 (UK/International Tour)
Choreographer Siân Playsted also worked on Cats in Sweden two years earlier.
