How Gillian Lynne was inspired for the choreography for 'Cats' the musical?

By exploing the poetry of T.S.Elliots Old Possum's Book of Practical cats you will be able to see that the poetry is an obvious base for the narrartive movement content. It goes a bit deeper then this though, as the poems them self have alot of musicality to them, for instance the way you read the structures and phrasing of the poems is very reflective in the choreography, also the the pronunciation of words is clearly an influence within the choreography. Most character have there own "theme tune" which Andrew Lloyd Webber has mimicked in his compositions from the way we read theses poems. These themetunes oftern relate to a particular style of dance. The tap dance section that the Gumbie Cat doese. Also the skimbleshanks railway cat has a composition that has a very distinctive train rythmm in it which envolved in the dancers dancing pony steps to.
