It seems inherent to the concept to have a lot of feline-based dancing and movement.
I can't imagine this as a song cycle, it's like a dark children's musical and vaudeville show, it's not written as something that can stand on its own with just music and lyrics, it doesn't tell a story or have relatable characters drawn out in lyrics, etc.
It seems like the show is basically what it should be, the elements that could most successfully changed are the actual choreo, and the design of the costumes and sets etc. I can see it being reconceived with a different directorial vision (i long to see that actually), but I can't see it as a song cycle. |
