Felines don't just have nine lives because 38 years on, Cats the musical is still going strong. This Christmas, it will be adapted into a movie starring the likes of Taylor Swift, Jennifer Hudson, Judi Dench and more.

But the big screen isn't the only place to catch Cats because the West End hit is returning to the stage as well in Singapore.

Based on T.S. Elliot's Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats, the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical is one of the longest-running shows in both West End and Broadway history. It's best known for spawning the hit song Memory, which has been covered by over 150 artists from Barbra Streisand to Barry Manilow.
