With The Tonys just a few days away, we were lucky enough to catch Cats The Jellicle Ball's co-director Zhailon Levingston for a minute to chat all about the exciting revival which sets CATS in the ballroom world! He explains how a joke of an idea to do CATS without CATS became the Jellicle Ball when a friend connected him to Bill Rausch who was also thinking about a new version of CATS. We dish about how they couldn't change the music but if they could, what song he would want to attack first, what he brings back to Broadway after directing community theater in his local hometown, and he answers the question, why this revival and why now?? *****RATE ***** REVIEW******SUBSCRIBE***** And tell a fellow theatre lover to come on over and join us.

Today on the pod we are so lucky to have director Jack Serio!
