Monday, March 29-Tuesday, March 30: "Cats"

Washington Center

By Volcano Staff on March 25, 2010

The longest running musical in the history of British theater has found its way to Olympia. Cats, which opened in 1981 in London's West End, and then became the longest running show on Broadway, is on a national tour. Based on the work of T.S. Eliot's Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats, paired with the music of Andrew Lloyd Webber, Cats is a must see if for no other reason than to watch a bunch of people singing in furry unitards. Not just anyone can pull off a body suit of fur, you know. Believe us, we've tried.
