Look who's here! It's CHRISTMAS DEUT!

Here comes Mulletstrap running to meet him like a good boy.

Skimblesack! (Geroge and Carbuckety quickly vacate Santa's throne.)

They do not get presents though. Presents are only for girl kittens.

Etcetera may have a present!

She shares it with Jemima and Greycat and quickly goes back for more.

Bill Bailey is hopeful behind Jemima's shoulders. George is just happy to sit by Munkustrap's foot and be included.

Happy Jellicle Christmas, everybody!

London 1987 or 1988 (full video here).

On their Blackpool stop. Peter Bishop as Munkustrap and Rosemarie Ford as Bombalurina; I don't know who the Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer are, but if they're first cast for the time, they would be Adrian Edmeades and Barbara King.

Multiple cats over the decades have been the ones to catch the Chaos Duo in the act. (Sometimes it’s Jenny and Jelly! I really like when it is lsdihfl. Fear your mums, children.) But usually, with London-based productions, Munkustrap is always the primary one, along with either Admetus or Alonzo (whichever of those 2 isn’t the one to grab the bag poses authoritatively with them).

However, with the 1989 UK Tour, we can clearly see that Munkustrap’s partner in busting the would-be delinquents is neither of his usual assistants. Instead, it’s Bomba! Make of this what you will, but I for one will make it the power couple keeping order 😌

Aaaah two other pictures of me as Mungojerrie that I finally found again.

It was my first and yet only cosplaying experience and I wasn't sure if I was the right person for it. But, it was my chance to wear this authentic London 2002 Mungojerrie costume, originally worn by Adrian Edmeades and now owned by a friend of mine. ☺️

This is 6 years ago when I was still young 😂

StEx Appreciation Month Day 22: Krupp

Favourite Actor Adrian Edmeades is my fave fave fave! I also love Joey McKneely, Wilton Anderson, Richard Amiel, Orlando Pena, and Nelson Yee. Favourite Songs/Scenes The beginning of AC/DC when he has his ‘gun hands’ and the waddle forward sksksks. Favourite Costumes The Bochum one but I also enjoy the Broadway and Japan/Australia Tour costume. Favourite Ships Purse/Krupp but I don’t actively ship them… so any other ship is fine to me 😊 Headcanons No one has seen Krupp without his shades on apart from the other components and Electra. Unpopular Opinions I don’t really like Krupp with a moustache for personal reasons but if people wanna give him a moustache, I don’t mind 😊 Photo 1: Richard Amiel - Japan/Australia Tour 1987-88. Photo 2: George Canning - London 1986. Photo 3: Gareth Bretherton - Bochum 2007. Photo 4: Michael Skyers - London 1998. Photo 5: Richard Leavey - Bochum 2015. Photo 6: Wilton Anderson - Bochum 1988.

Stex Appreciation Month Day 20: Krupp

Hell yeah I finally caught up with my posts 😭

Favourite Actor: Adrian Edmeades, Gareth Bretherton or Todd Bowers.

Favourite Song/Scene: The ‘He’s got a gun!’ scream from one of the coaches because of his finger gun LOL.

Favourite Costume: Early Bochum!

Favourite Ship: Purse/Krupp of course but I like Rusty/Krupp too tee-hee.

Headcanon: The shades never come off 😎

Unpopular Opinion: I don’t think I have any? Other than that I don't headcanon Krupp with a moustache personally.

[chrissi2810]

Throwback to when my friend let me wear her authentic Mungojerrie costume (originally worn by Adrian Edmeades in the London production, around 2001 or 2002). I had never cosplayed before and after as I am bad at it.

I will probably never forget that day in 2015. :D

Stex Appreciation Month Day 11 - Krupp

MY FAVOURITE COMPONENT  ❤️

Adrian Edmeades - Bochum 1999

Jared Thompson - Bochum 2016

Favourite song?

AC/DC. Especially when he comes out at the beginning. Ugh he’s so cool.

Favourite actor?

Adrian Edmeades, Andrew Gardner, or Richard Ray-Allen.

Favourite ship?

Krupp/Purse :3

Favourite thing about him?

EVERYTHING! He's just so cool and badass. I love his shades and his mimed guns too.

Something you’d change?

Nothing! He's perfect :)

Random headcanon?

Krupp drinks his respecting ladies juice for breakfast  😌

Unpopular opinion?

I don't think I have any other than I wish he hadn't been cut but I think everyone agrees with that.  Also in my opinion he’s one of the best ensemble characters sksksk

Have yourself a merry little Christmas...

The cast of Cats in London, either 1987 or 1989. Cast below the cut.

I’ve seen this dated 1987, and some of the cast seem more like 1987 than 1989; but then, it’s also part of this compilation, which is dated 1989. Neither of these is conclusive, though, since it’s possible that some of the earlier cast returned for a special event, or, on the other hand, that it was filmed earlier then included in that collection anyway.

So far, this is the cast list as I can guess it:

Bill Bailey: Adrian Edmeades Bomba: Jacqui Harman Bustopher: Christopher Molloy Carbuckety: Japheth Myers Coricopat: Hilton Jones Demeter: Aeva May Deuteronomy: Michael Sanderson Electra: Jackie Crawford Etcetera: Marsha Bland George: Steven Wayne Greycat/NBQ: Diane Manou Grizabella: Sharon Benson Jellylorum: Ann Woodfield Jemima: Ruthie Henshall Jennyanydots: Judith Street Mungojerrie: Scott Sherrin Munkustrap: Sandy Strallen Rumpelteazer: Anna Jane Casey Rum Tum Tugger: Richard Lloyd-King Skimbleshanks: Adam Matalon Tabbygirl: Cathy Cordez Tantomile: Amanda Courtney-Davies Victoria: Cherida Langford

Swings present: Greycat/NBQ (kitten, like a silvery version of Exotica), Tabbygirl (queen, gloves instead of armwarmers, lying behind Deme and Bomba in the hammock)

Missing: Mistoffelees, Admetus/Macavity, Gus (obviously, since Bustopher is there), Victor
