This is a matinee report of the Nagoya performance of Cats performed by Shiki Theater Company on October 15, 2023.
On this day, I focused on Bombalurina, played by Harusa Yamazaki. She is very tall, has a good figure, and above all, is very beautiful, and is exactly what she admires.
In Bustopher Jones' number, Bustopher Jones, played by Kouhei Nakahashi, almost falls. Then, Skimbleshanks, played by Yui Kobayashi, Rumpus Cat, played by Kazuyuki Mandokoro, Carbucketty, played by Hiroki Terunuma, and Mistoffelees, played by Akito Iwamura, all panic. There is a choreography that supports Bustopher Jones.
And Bombalurina was behind them with a very surprised look on her face, which was really cute.
In the Asparagus number, Coricopat, played by Ryujiro Isshiki, looked at Bombalurina for a while. And when Bombalurina looked at him, Coricopat immediately looked away from him.
In the Mistoffelees number, Mistoffelees tears off Demeter's hair (but doesn't really tear it off) and performs a magic trick that lights up various places.
When Rumpelteazer, played by Ayu Shimizu, saw this, she tried to imitate Mistoffelees and tear off Bombalurina's hair. Bombalurina noticed this and grabbed Rumpelteazer's arm, throwing her hair far away. Rumpelteazer looked stunned. These two looked like sisters and were really cute.

For the flower ship asks thing :]
Dahlia, peony, orchid and snowdrop for Victeazer
Tulip, daisy and poppy for Cassoffelees
sorry this took long, life stuff but I love these ships so
Victeazer
Dahlia ; Do they keep secrets from each other?
Teazer has the habit of keeping secrets, much like Mungo. It's more stuff she isn't ready to or doesn't want to open up about.
Teazer is a bit of a bad liar, especially when Victoria is being stern with her so more often there isn't a lot of hiding things from each other going on.
As for Victoria she’s practically an open book, most of the time atleast. She only keeps secrets if others ask her to, and since she’s very loyal about keeping trust she won’t rat anything out to Teazer.
Peony ; Which one is the most impulsive?
Teazer.
Rump is fairly hyperactive enough that she can get impulsive and sometimes her “do what you want and just go with it” mindset does influence Victoria.
Of course, Vicky would never be willing to go on a full heist but she is up for a few pranks and maybe a bit of cheeky fun with Teazer if they don’t hurt anyone or get caught.
I started thinking of the scene from Smurfs 2 in the candy shop and how that’s basically 2019 M&R song
Orchid ; Who's the big spoon and who's the little spoon?
OMG OMG
Victoria big spoons out of preference and cause Teazer loves getting engulfed in her girlfriend’s fluff.
But occasionally they’ll switch up for funzies or depending on circumstances.
It’s not exactly an agreed-on thing, it just sort of happens.
Snowdrop ; How long have they been together?
Hmmmm I generally do a couple years after the events of the show for my hcs about them so probably two - three years i’d imagine
Cassoffelees
Tulip ; Which one gives the most gifts? Do they know the other well enough to give them something they'd like?
Mistoffelees has the general advantage of being able to conjure things, he normally makes things Cassandra mentioned she liked / wanted. New collar, flowers, pillows etc. But even If Cassandra doesn’t mention a particular item he knows her well enough to get something she finds useful or likes.
However Cassandra isn’t one to be outdone, when it comes to hunting Misto tends to leave it to her (due to her own insistence and having far more opportunities and luck with it when on patrol) since Misto generally loves a good meal like his father Bustopher. So sometimes Cassandra will go out of her way to get him something special or new he hasn’t tried before. They have little at-home (or den) dinner dates.
Daisy ; Which one sings while doing chores? Are they good at it?
Hmmm, Misto whistles most of the time but he does sing few and far between.
Cassandra will and without a care, she has a genuinely beautiful voice and Mistoffelees loves hearing it. She normally sings simple tunes though.
Poppy ; How much do they trust each other?
Cassandra trusts Misto a lot. A lot a lot.
(mini rant I'm sorry)
But my little headcanon was that Mistoffelees was always going to choose Cassandra as his assistant. In short term, she was in on it with Tugger and Mistoffelees.
Cassandra is a protective person and I think there was a big “What if Misto messes up” fear going around both of their heads during the whole get-back plan. But instead of being doubtful, she does choose to trust Misto, (I think productions where they include cass running away is just her own anxieties getting the better of her) but she still manages to put that aside and trust Misto by getting into the pipe. And it works!
I think from then on she never really does doubt his magic. More importantly, him.
As for Mistoffelees, he sort of always had a big amount of trust in Cassandra. Why wouldn’t he? She’s reliable and for him very approachable. They’re close and trust eachother alot.
