A Playbill facsimile from the Toronto stop of the first year of US Tour 5 between 19 February 2002 and 03 March 2002 at the Canon Theatre (now Ed Mirvish Theatre) on Yonge Street in downtown Toronto.
The cover features the same actors from the London production that were used for promotion of the 1998 film, and more than a bit strangely used for early US Tour 5 as well, considering that the character designs are different and the central Cat, Electra, is missing from the company!
The programme itself has no images of the production (as like most US productions post-Broadway), and is strictly cast and crew information.
Nobody:
absolutely nobody:
US tour 5 Mistoffelees behind the girls' relevee:
Chaz Wolcott not only just showing off all his various spinnies with total "what, like it's hard?" aplomb...
...but also matching the girls' attitude with his leg sir this is frankly unreasonable why are your spinnies always so extra
2011–2012, the final year of US tour 5 (notice that's Tantomile to Victoria's right, and she and Coricopat only existed in that year of this production!).
Beyond Chaz I'm not sure exactly who's on in this video, but if they're first cast that would be Chris Stevens as Tugger, Hillary Porter as Rumpelteazer, and Jordan Dunlap as Victoria. Tantomile was an onstage swing role so she could be any one of several actors.
In honor of his upcoming Wrong cat died episode, Will Porter shares a video him and the fifth cast of the US tour made:
Going to try my best to ID but If I'm wrong feel free to correct me! I'm also missing a few...
In Order of appearance:
Kathryn Holtkamp as Grizabella, Ashley Travis as Bombalurina, Morgan White as Plato, Eddie Lawrence as Alonzo, Bronson N. Murphy as Gus, Zach Hess as Munkustrap, Ashley Chasteen as Demeter, and Jordan Dunlap as Victoria.
I don't know who Sillabub, Mistoffelees and Pouncival are so maybe I messed up but please tell me if you know and I'll add them!!
