Tonight‘s performance of Cats at Tokyo‘s Cats Theater in Gotanda will mark the 25th anniversary of the musical in Japan.
In a special message to cast and crew Andrew Lloyd Webber said: "Omedetou gozaimasu to everyone involved with Cats in Japan. 25 years - what a fantastic achievement".
The show premiered in 1983 with Akiko Kuno playing Grizabella and Takanori Yamamoto playing the part of Old Deuteronomy.
