#and Warsaw costed around 2 mln PLN which would be around 2.5 mln PLN now

One theory that just popped into my head is that they might not have had the time and/or money for a new libretto. Especially with the cost of buying the licence for the show and the shorter than Roma's prep time
And with the whole poster competition I am curious if it wasn't part of some price negotiating, like "hey, if we promise not to use your branding can we have it a little cheaper?"
But it's just some speculation on my part
No, I didn't end up rambling about Cats, I just didn't have time yesterday. Today also not so much, because I was linking all my quotes and that took quite a time. But, now I'm back!
Next thing I wanted to tell you about is a libretto/translation of it. I don't like the Polish translation much. Sorry, I think it could be done much better. It was almost the same as Warsaw's translation, but there were some differences. I know the 2004 version by heart so I heard them! They didn't change a sense, they were rather cosmetic. Maybe it was easier to sing it that way? I wish I had a record, because of course I don't remember them :(

#originally it took the guy over a month to translate the libretto and he was already doing some of it 'for yesterday'#cuz the castings where tkaing place around the same time#idk how much prep time Chorzów had but i am pretty sure they had at least a little less rehearsal time#Warsaw had around 4 months and Chorzów had i believe around 3 but i may be wrong#and Warsaw costed around 2 mln PLN which would be around 2.5 mln PLN now#wish we'd knew how much Chorzów cost#also thanks for your faith in my translating abilities XD#cats the musical#cats chorzów#koty Chorzów#cats non replica
