How do I say this...I don't think I have the vocabulary to do it justice: I watched CATS in Cape Town on Saturday night and it went beyond anything I have experienced before. It was magical, spectacular, beautiful. It is a memory I shall carry with me for the rest of my life.
I had one of the Cats running down the aisles stop to stare at me and start singing. I was agog and looked back at her with open mouth. Later, another touched me with her paws.
Having being exposed to this, it may be a long time before I have any interest in anything so tawdry as much as is on show at my local cinema.
So sad that we live in East London where anything vaguely cultural is rare.
I would so love to live in Cape Town:There is so much more to do there. I have found that
the people I encountered were also a good deal more courteous and helpful than those
I meet outside of work in East London.
I thought that going to the Artscape Theatre would be wasted on a philistine such as my self,
but I was wrong. It has affected me deeply. Although I felt moved during the production, the full
impact of the musical only hit me on the following evening.
Another thing: After flying 1Time, I am in no hurry to use SAA again.
