Cats - the video

The Adelphi Theatre, London

Michael got a bunch of new fans after Cats - the video was released. As in the Broadway production, he did the part of Munkustrap, and he did an amazing job. Mr. Gruber's beautiful voice, his dancing, acting and brilliant facial expressions made this Munkustrap one of my favourite characters of all times.
