Episode 7 - What's New, Pussycat? Backstage at Broadway's CATS with Tyler Hanes

[@mariposa8430]

no one: no one at all: tyler and ricky: *TUGGOFFELEES*

[@amp-le4699]

I love how some of the cast are down with the Tugger x Mistoffeeles ship too xD

[@hyenahearts6500]

The guy having the speed run through 3 characters is such a mood

[@mariposa8430]

6:52 TUGGOFFELEES CONFIRMED Y'ALL seriously though this is why cats is one of my favorite musicals also tyler in the corner of the elevator made me laugh for some reason

[@candragloomblade9546]

I am artist whose pictures are hang in your dressing room (at 9.13). And I wanted you to know that I am very happy that you like them, and that it is an honor for me as for big fan of "Cats"!

[@knoxovrstreet]

Hello! This is Tyler! I am a huge fan of your art! Both myself and Ricky (misto) loved all of your Tugger and Misto drawings and couldn't wait to display them. Everyone that visits our room loves them as well!

[@knoxovrstreet]

Please let me know if you create any new Tugger art work. I'd love to display it!

[@cruisematt8585]

That's so cool

[@pumpkinpatch5]

If someone from a production as amazing as Cats, took my art and framed it... that’s just the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen. Also, Misto and Tugger definitely have a thing going. Ha! I’ve seen your art on DeviantArt and I love it by the way!

[@FITZIEBLUE]

@@pumpkinpatch5 oh good lord...i thought Tugger was Misto's dad and that was why he was so proud of him (eventually) and that Old Deuteronomy was his (Misto's) grandpa....

[@frostedjosieos]

Ohhh, all of my theatre instincts said DANGER when that cake with LIGHTED CANDLES went into the room with all the costumed kitties.

[@melissabrown3665]

Saaaame! I was like holding my breath!

[@MomokaChu1]

omfg my first thought was "there is way too much fur in that room for this"

[@pinkfeiry]

THEY HAVE FRAMED SHIPPING ART JUST BECAUSE. OMG.

[@IWillBeHers]

Seeing the stage manager's station backstage reminds me of how Laura Osnes used to say hi to Ira every night/matinee by leaving a makeup smudge on his call book. Also, I didn't know Mistofelees/Tugger was a thing, but apparently it is!

[@deannascozycorner]

i loved how she used to do that

[@tortcontent6120]

" Lots of *fanfiction* " And here, ladies and gentlemen, is where I die.

Bailey Bieganek It's my favorite song from the show.

[@baileybieganek2446]

+Jordan Nickel-Dubin it's tied with macavity and rum Tum tugger for me. But wouldn't Tyler just kill it!?!

[@jordannickel-dubin9851]

Yeah, he would. And I find him so sexy dressed as Tugger. Oh, and I love Ricky, and want to see him as Mistoffelees.

A room full of Broadway singers and they still can't sing happy birthday

Rumaisah Imrane Nobody can sing Happy Birthday

[@randomcitizen3939]

yooo Hahaha

[@rosedragon1200]

My choir director would say the thing about us. It doesn't matter how much training you have it all goes out the window for Happy Birthday! XD

[@juanvillanueva2848]

I was doing small gigs for various events. We would play our sets fine and have no trouble. But once we found out about a birthday and people asked us to play, we would crash.... hard... so now we just let our vocalists sing it and us musicians just stand around.

[@tamemeifyoucan]

I look forward to this every week, please don't ever stop

[@possums154]

I had a dream that I was one of the jellicle cats last night I was so happy

[@jameskirk5671]

Watching this yet again in November 2020. When will we have this world again, The arts, the shows and carefree people on the sidewalks

[@dreamersprosperx3]

probably a stupid question... The people who were on the mics, do they basically sing backstage to boost the voices? or are they just practicing?

[@rebeccadunn8971]

Yes they do as often the people on stage are dancing. It's called booth singing

[@mythic_fci762]

dreamersprosperx3 They sing ensemble backup - everyone on stage is generally quite out of breath from dancing, so they give the sound a bit of a boost.

[@ilonadonovan443]

MORE! MORE! MORE!

[@ChelCM03]

I do ship Tugger and Misto dont get me wrong, but there is absolutely nothing I hate more than knowing that they had Tugger and Misto FANART IN THEIR ROOM

I wonder why they're not doing the new version of Tugger? He did uk and European tour & Australian tour. Anyone know why not broadway? Did the producers reject him and his rap(with a silent C )

[@jonclay7694]

Hi Tyler, I don't have a Twitter but I do have a question for you and other Cats cast- do you have a favorite real life cat? (Could be a celebrity cat or a cat you've known personally.)
