Summary:
Cats: The Jellicle Cats gather in their junkyard, preparing for the Jellicle Ball, for this is the night when patriarch Old Deuteronomy will choose a cat to be reborn into a new life on the Heavyside Layer. There are stories, songs, and dances from Victoria the White Cat, Munkustrap, Rum Tum Tugger, Grizabella, Jemima, Gus the Theatre Cat, Jellylorum, Skimbleshanks, Macavity, Demeter and Bombalurina, Demeter, Alonzo, Mr. Mistoffelees, and others. The songs explain how Cats are named, whom they fight, how they work and play, entertain, and how they love and why. Joseph and amazing technicolor dreamcoat: In this filmed adaption of the long-running humourously musical interpretation of the Biblical story of Joseph, favored son of Jacob of Canaan, and his coat of many colors, Joseph is betrayed by his jealous brothers, sold into slavery, and driven to Egypt where he is beset with adversity but perseveres through wit and faith to become the governor of Egypt, second only to the Pharaoh. Love never dies: The year is 1907. It is ten years after the Phantom's disappearance from the Paris Opera House. He has escaped to a new life in New York, where he lives among the screaming joy rides and freak-shows of Coney Island. In this new electrically charged world, he has finally found a place for his music to soar. All that is missing is his love - Christine Daae. Now one of the world's finest sopranos, Christine is struggling in an ailing marriage to Raoul. Jesus Christ superstar: The Andrew Lloyd Webber musical stage production of the classic which tells the story of the last seven days in the life of Jesus.
