I'm been doing a 'beginners guide to Cats productions' and its very funny because truly some productions are really not *that* remarkable on their own merits and have only become notable within the fandom because footage for that production is very accessible (ie on youtube)

So I'm doing rundowns on the most notable/popular productions and some of them are like 'changed X element to what its known as today, first usage of Y element ever in Cats, featured A, B, and C well-known cast members' and some of them are like 'it certainly exists'

#and not to say thats a bad thing #like i love madrid 2004 but aside from some unique costume elements theres not a lot to say about it #london costuming! its in spanish! i love it very dearly!#meanwhile the bway revival or the international tour or japan i had to struggle to summarize in a couple sentences #im not going to /exclude/ madrid bc a lot of us know it #but we know it bc its on youtube #kinda similar with the vienna revival #like for all intents and purposes its extremely similar to 98 except for a few details #but its popular bc it was very recent and it had a great cast and theres some footage around #which is great! but 'i love it' is not a great summarization of the production as a whole
