This Cats UK Tour ran from 1993 to 1995, and was essentially a mirror of the London production minus the ensemble characters Bill Bailey, Etcetera, Victor and George. While cutting four ensemble kittens was common, it was unique for this production to include an extra female kitten in Electra, while cutting an additional male kitten in Bill Bailey. The production was a slow tour, spending several weeks or months at large regional theatres.
