The Jellicle Cats have arrived in Singapore. Andrew Lloyd Webber’s  record-breaking CATS the musical is now playing at Sands Theatre, Marina Bay Sands, until 22  November 2026 for a strictly limited season, following its successful Singapore seasons in 2015 and  2019. 

The Jellicle Cats Ball

Based on T. S. Eliot’s Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats, CATS brings a larger-than-life junkyard to  the stage, where the Jellicle Cats gather for the legendary Jellicle Ball to share their stories with Old  Deuteronomy. One Cat will be chosen to ascend to the Heaviside Layer and begin a new life. 

As the Jellicle Cats prepare to gather under the moonlight, each brings a distinct story, set of quirks  and personality to the Jellicle Ball, offering audiences characters they can relate to or simply enjoy  discovering. 

Cindy-Ann Abrahams plays Grizabella, performing one of musical theatre’s most celebrated songs,  “Memory”. Abrahams previously appeared in the Singapore season of Evita in 2018. Joining her at the  Jellicle Ball are Ché-Jean Jupp as Munkustrap, King B as Old Deuteronomy, Dylan Janse van Rensburg  as Rum Tum Tugger, Mukeni Nel, who returns following his appearance in the musical’s 2019  Singapore season, as Quaxo / Mr Mistoffelees, Stephan van der Walt as Admetus / Macavity, Tatum  Coleman as Bombalurina and Logan Timbre as Skimbleshanks, the Railway Cat. 

The company of Jellicle Cats also features Amy Berrisford as Jennyanydots, Austin Tshikosi as  Mungojerrie, Brittané van Loggerenberg as Demeter, Cassiel Eatock-Winnik as Victoria, Charlie Follows  as Bill Bailey, Darren Rockman as Coricopat, Hannah Marshall as Cassandra, Harry Smallman as George  / On Stage Swing, Morgan Marshall as Electra / On Stage Swing, Scarlett Pay as Jemima, Sibusiso  Mxosana as Alonzo, Tannah Levick as Rumpleteazer, Tania Mteto as Tantomile, Tshepo Ncokoane as  Bustopher Jones / Gus and Zoë McLaughlin as Jellylorum.

At the heart of the musical is “Memory”, one of the most recognisable songs in musical theatre history,  which has been recorded by more than 150 artists. Beyond its most famous number, the production  moves through a diverse musical landscape as each Jellicle takes their turn in the spotlight.
