Have I Made A Mistake?? (It's possible! =^-^=) Please email me at felinas_jellicleworld@hotmail.com and I will put it right!
JELLICLE SONGS FOR JELLICLE CATS
1. When the first Cats onstage are doing that "Jellicles can and Jellicles do," thing with their knees, the first time Munkustrap is behind.
2. When Etcetera sings her line "Are you keen to be seen..." the shadow of the trapeze wire is visible across her leotard.
3. When Etcetera swings across the stage on the trapeze, you can see the stagehand's arm pushing her out.
4. At the end of the "mystical divinity" when they sing "life to the everlasting Cat" Munkustrap's eyes get big and worried like he or somebody near him sung a wrong note!
THE NAMING OF CATS
1. There's a mystery cat in these first two pieces! She is red and tabby and about the same age as Jennyanydots. This Cat is played by Elaine Paige, before she is Grizabella, but the cat isn't named and doesn't get credited, so you're left wondering, who was that?
2. As Victoria starts her solo dance, Bombalurina crosses behind her to go offstage, but she steps into the spotlight a bit, so you notice her.
3. Because of his white face and paws, you can clearly see Misto lying in the tunnel waiting for his cue. (It's really cute to watch him lie there, you see him kneel up and get ready to run out!)
THE GUMBIE CAT
1. When Munkustrap rubs cheeks with Alonzo, Cassandra's hand is right in front of them and in front of the camera.
2. When the kittens put the mouse masks on, Jemima, who is at the front, can't get it on the first time and has to take it off and put it on again, quickly!
3. When Jenny goes underneath Munku's legs, her coat is so big it knocks his legs and makes him wobble. (This is hard to spot!)
5. When Demeter, Bombalurina and Jellylorum are sidestepping with their hands over their heads, Jelly and Demeter are in different positions, Jelly has her legs apart while she steps and Demeter has her legs together.
7. Jellylorum has to pull really hard to get Jenny's boot off while they're taking her big top layer off.
8. Throughout the tap dancing, Rumpelteazer sometimes hasn't got tap shoes on, just her white socks.
THE RUM TUM TUGGER
1. When the Tugger kicks the soccer ball at the car boot, Mistoffelees flinches and ducks, like he thinks the ball's going to hit him!
2. When all the cats are dancing forward in a big line, Victoria and Jemima were talking at the back of the stage, and got left behind and have to run to the front of the stage to get in line. Victoria kind of looks apologetically at Electra, who is next to her. Jemima isn't so noticeable because of her colour and she is cut off the screen.
3. While Tugger is singing his long Abouts, watch Pouncival and Bombalurina behind them. No blooper, but naauuuughty!
4. At the end, when Tugger sees Grizabella come in, watch his lips! If you look carefully, it totally looks like he mouths, "F**k you"! I can't figure out whether he actually says this or something else, but that's what it looks like!
MUNGOJERRIE AND RUMPELTEAZER
1. At the beginning, where they sing "quick-change comedians", Mungo puts his finger up by his face in a 'smile' position. But he isn't smiling, he looks quite sad actually! (I'm not quite sure if this counts as a blooper?!)
2. After they have sung "We are incurably given to rove!" and done the leapfrog, they change positions to the next scene! They shift right across the stage. This is where they cut out the middle of the song to make it shorter.
3. When they are sitting and turning, singing about the joint missing from the oven, Mungo's foot hits Rumpel's leg.
OLD DEUTERONOMY
1. When they all get into line to meet Old Deuteronomy with Munku in front, Pouncival is actually right behind him, but you can't see him at all because Munku is standing and Pounce is crawling! Then, when they all rush forward to meet Old Deut, Pouncival leaps forward, but crashes into Munku's back!
THE AWEFULL BATTLE OF THE PEKES AND THE POLLICLES
1. While Munkustrap is singing at the beginning, after Misto and Skimble have crossed the stage, Electra comes onto the stage. It looks rehearsed, but there is something white on the stage in front of her, which she could be coming to get. I can't figure out what it is though, perhaps someone's leg or armwarmer.
2. In the first few verses when Munku is onstage alone, he keeps gasping for breath quite loudly between his sentences.
3. When the Cats being Pollicle Dogs come out with shoeboxes on their heads, Tumblebrutus gets a bit lost and is marching around the stage in the opposite direction to the others! Then, as they go offstage, Admetus bops him on the shoebox! (This is probably choreography!!)
4. When the Tugger is playing his Scottish pipes, Misto is doing a little highland jig. When he finishes with a last twirl, his big black shoe comes off and skids across the stage! Then as the Poms come forward, they step on it and Electra kicks it off the front of the stage. Throughout the rest of the number, poor Misto only has one shoe!
5. When Munku ducks the Rumpuscat for the second time, he crouches down too early and almost gets hit coming back up!
6. You can easily see the Rumpuscat's wire dangling down his back, which is what he uses to make his hair stand up on end.
THE SONG OF THE JELLICLES
1. When the Tugger turns up, Etcetera is so excited at being near him that she forgets to sing at first!
2. Later in the non-lyrical part, after Tumble does that massive backflip and they start competing, Pouncival's hip-shaking is quite behind Alonzo and Misto's. He catches up though.
3. While Tumble and Misto are doing their amazing leaps around the stage, they get quite out of time and do the leaps at different times. At the end they manage to get back in time, which is good!
4. After Victoria and Plato's bit, when they all come into the middle, Etctera is doing this cool stag elbow-stand! The thing is, in the next shot which is half a second later, she has somehow changed to lying on her back on the floor.
5. At the same time as Etc's elbow stand, Tumble, Pouncival and Alonzo are doing handstands. Unfortunately, Alonzo misses his balance and has hardly gone up before he comes down.
SKIMBLESHANKS: THE RAILWAY CAT
1. Just as the Cats are lying on the ground listening to Skimble sing, Cassandra adjusts her tail.
2. When Skimble's train is going, Munkustrap and Alonzo who are holding the big wheels, have to keep kicking them to keep them going. (I'm pretty sure they have to do this because the wheels are too heavy to turn with their wrists.)
3. Exotica is sitting next to Jellylorum by the tyre. She keeps changing costume!! First she's brown as usual, then she keeps changing from brown to a kind of peachy colour! It's so wierd and freaky!
MACAVITY
1. When everyone is singing "Macavity!" near the end of the song, Demeter does something wrong (forgets to sing maybe?) and makes a big 'oops' face!
MR. MISTOFFELEES
1. The third time Misto points at the stage, the flash doesn't go off! He turns around, looks at his fingers and tries again, and this time it works. This isn't a blooper, it's Mistoffelees is only learning to use his magic still. It's so cute!
2. It's really, really obvious that Old Deuteronomy is crawling out from the tunnel. For one thing, Cassandra isn't that big! But they did it pretty well since there wasn't much else they could do without a trapdoor!
THE AD-DRESSING OF CATS
1. This is actually for "Up to the Heavyside Layer". At first, the hydraulics under the rising tyre are hidden by the dry ice, but later it stops gushing out and the hydraulics are really visible!
2. When Old Deuteronomy starts singing, Munkustrap climbs up to the wooden arch beside him, opposite to where the Tugger is. Unfortunately, he blends in so well with the shadows that he is practically impossible to see! I only noticed him when I saw a little movement among the shadows as he did the dance and watched carefully.
3. Poor Old Deut is singing under a super-high-intensity spotlight with a massive fur coat on and his make-up starts to melt. Luckily he has dark skin anyway so you can't tell too much!
