The record-breaking popularity and longevity of Cats were overtaken in 1986 by the next Lloyd Webber musical with Gillian Lynne as musical stager and choreographer, Phantom of the Opera, directed by Hal Prince. With her long slim limbs, frequently displayed to great advantage in short dresses and leotards even in her eighties, Gillian Lynne insisted that her arrestingly youthful looks were the result of being married to a man 24 years younger than her.

It is no exaggeration that ‘Cats’ opened with the only cast available who could have played their roles,” he added. Gillian Lynne’s first choreography was also for television, Western Theatre Ballet’s jazz-ballet The Owl and the Pussycat, composed by Dudley Moore. Her choreography credits include more than 50 shows including Cats and The Phantom of the Opera. Gillian will also have a wellness and fitness regime DVD released entitled Longevity through Exercise, and she will be writing the sequel to her recent memoir A Dancer In Wartime, which is soon to be made into a feature film. She was a leading soloist and became known for roles including the Black Queen in Checkmate and Queen of the Wilis in Giselle. A working nonagenarian, Lynne was described in the Los Angeles Times as “a small, slender blonde with the stamina of a hummingbird.”, She was a ballet dancer, choreographer, director, producer and writer. Gillian Lynne is credited as Director and Choreographer. Her opera productions are Bluebeard (ENO); The Trojans, The Midsummer Marriage, The Flying Dutchman, and Parsifal (ROH). She was instrumental in the development of jazz dance in Britain and her distinctive style - a fusion of classical and jazz - led to her groundbreaking work on the world famous Cats (Olivier Award- London, Moliere Award- Paris) and also on Andrew Lloyd Webber's worldwide hit The Phantom of the Opera for which she provided the musical staging and choreography.

An acrobatic “dance-ical” in cat costumes making a sexy semi-pantomime from T S Eliot’s poems was hardly expected to be a world smash, but it ran for 18 years on Broadway and 21 in the West End. In a ceremony to mark the event, Lynne was carried to the stage on a golden throne, surrounded by dancers from Cats. The opening of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical Cats, which premiered in 1981 in London, became the focal point of that legacy and the moment we were captivated by a new, frenetic and fantastical choreography. Later that day, all Broadway shows announced a one-month closure that turned into an indefinite shut down.
