CATS: The Jellicle Ball radicalizes Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Cats through its kaleidoscopic mashup of genres, styles, and disciplines. Co-directors Zhailon Levingston and Bill Rauch, and co-choreographers Omari Wiles and Arturto Lyons, showcase innovative new forms of collaboration in the pursuit of revolution, queer joy, and acceptance.
In this episode, we follow the directors, choreographers, and dramaturg and gender consultant, Josephine Kearns, for the 2026 Broadway transfer from downtown’s PAC NYC. Witness how they combine ballroom history with the extravagance of the runway while maintaining the spirit of one of Broadway’s most iconic and enduring scores.
