The Tacoma Musical Playhouse intended to show Andrew Lloyd Webber's classic "Cats" this summer.  However, according to a TMP press release, "The licensing company of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s "Cats" recently restricted the performing rights of the show due to a professional tour coming to Seattle."
Bummer. 
The playhouse will show "The King and I" instead, opening July 7 and running through Aug 6.  For tickets, call (253) 565-6867 or visit their Web site. â€" Ken Swarner
