Cats walk in their own ways, purr their emotions, play their music... In the Entertainment Theater you can make friends with them and listen to their crazy stories.

They will tell us about their conquests, passions, longings. They will show the panorama of the city from the highest roof or take you on a journey through the darkest corners of the streets. They will show their many talents and a whole range of extraordinary feline abilities.

Cats is one of the most famous and most watched musicals of all time. It was composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber and the libretto was written by Trevor Nunn. The inspiration for the transfer of the feline world to the theater was the poems of T. S. Eliot, which presented in a colorful and imaginative way the characters, way of life and perception of the world of these extraordinary creatures.

The Entertainment Theatre is the second theatre in Poland that has undertaken to stage such an amazing musical. Although it has already been shown in many countries and even in the cinema, its power does not weaken. It attracts all lovers of music, adventure, fun, emotions and cats.

Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber based on Old Possum's Book Of Practical Cats by T.S. Eliot
