Cats

An unexpected surprise.  My good friend could not attend Cats last night so he gave me his tix and I attended with his partner & his mom.  It has been sooooo long since I attended a musical I cannot recall what the last one was.  Off I went to see Cats even though I am a Dog person. 

It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience.  I appreciated the dancing even more than I did before, especially after taking my one dance class early this year.  Dancing does not come easy to me, so watching the performers move effortlessly was beautiful.

Another highlight was experiencing the song Memory live.  Chills went down my arms.  In junior high our chorus class sang that song to death, granted we were pretty good since the school was half performing arts students.  To hear that song sung by people with amazing voices was just wonderful. 

Such an amazing night.  I have only recently gotten back into musicals because of Dr. Horrible and Glee.  My first real live major theater experience was a musical at the Dorothy Chandler, and thinking about that my dance class is related to that too.  Maybe I should keep practicing my dance steps.
