A horde of "cats" invaded the Beijing Exhibition Theater on Saturday, and
conquered the audience with a spellbinding two-hour show.
Representing "Cats," the longest-running musical on Broadway, performers from
Australia put on a successful opening of their Beijing tour.
At the performance, the cats were not confined to the stage. They jumped into
the audience and surprised theatergoers with intimate interactions.
The night's climax occurred when the actors sang the musical's long-familiar
song, "Memory," in Chinese.
The musical runs through Jan. 27.
