THE JELLICLE BALL

Watch out! There’s a new Cats in town. Choreographed by Arturo Lyons and Omari Wiles, and directed by Zhailon Levingston and Bill Rauch, The Jellicle Ball promises to be a radical reimagining of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Cats.

A radical reimagining of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s iconic musical based on T. S. Eliot’s Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats. Inspired by the Ballroom culture that roared out of New York City over 50 years ago and still rages around the world. Staged as a spectacularly immersive competition by Zhailon Levingston (Tina: The Tina Turner Musical, Chicken & Biscuits) and PAC NYC Artistic Director Bill Rauch (All the Way), with all-new Ballroom and club beats, runway-ready choreography, and an edgy eleganza makeover that moves the action from junkyard to catwalk.  Come one, come all, and celebrate the joyous transformation of self at the heart of Cats and Ballroom culture itself.

Initial casting also includes Sydney James Harcourt, Antwayn Hopper, Shereen Pimentel, Nora Schell, and more.
