Went to see Cats at the Regent theatre in Stoke last night. I can’t comment on how good the performance was compared to other shows as it was the first time I’ve ever seen Cats. I was very impressed and really enjoyed the show – the costumes were really good and the hydraulic platform at the end of the show was good too. I did feel sorry for the people in the front row though as the smoke that hid the platform ramp billowed off the stage and right into their faces. Incidentally my father was one of the engineers who worked on the original platform at Cats in London.
