Annemarie Rosano (Jellylorum) and Brayden Newby (Plato) having a sweet little background moment—as interpreted for us by Annemarie! (X)

(Meanwhile, Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer present themselves for attention, which brings Alonzo running over to back Munkustrap up. Cute little Alonzoffelees and Mungoteazer moments, plus Coricomile sliding winningly over to Demebomba for pets and tidying.)

2019 US tour: Alonzo is Adam Vanek and Alex Dorf is Munkustrap; and I think we have Tion Gaston as Mistoffelees, Justin Geiss as Mungojerrie, and Rose Iannaccone as Rumpelteazer.

When the powers that be decide to cut 'Pekes and Pollicles' from the show, Munkustrap has to get all his directorial fussing out in other numbers.

No relaxing happily in the background while Jenny takes charge: these kittens are clearly disgracing him.

Well, thank goodness that's over. This ball can only get better from here... right?

Oasis cast 11, 13 April 2022. Benjamin McMillan as Munkustrap, Megan Carton as Jennyanydots, Will Geoghegan as Mistoffelees.

Shiki Mistoffelees is suave and cocky and always confident, and Munkustrap will just... make sure sillabub doesn't get too close to whatever he's cooking up.

... but when he succeeds... suddenly even this cheeky little Munk-assistant just can't be sure of it.

Munkustrap encourages Sillabub toward their returned leader, and only then notices Mistoffelees' terror...

The careful tender approach...!

And there are our happy zoomy spinnies again. 😌

(Can't forget priorities though: must retrieve our beautiful assistant Bombalurina!)

Shiki production, Nagoya 20/7/2000.

Mistoffelees' magic stops working mid-solo, just as he was trying to show off to Sillabub with a projectile tin can.

A moment of recharging and it worked, and Munkustrap is left to tidy up after him. As usual.

"Now, Old Deuteronomy, just before dawn...."

Munkustrap and Mistoffelees must have a little consult—or a private look and touch after the excitement of Mistoffelees' number.

... and then check in again a moment later when Grizabella appears.

After welcoming everyone to the ball, Munkustrap will unleash tolerate the spinny zoomies of the Mistoffelees!

... oh, why not. He might even join him for some spins.

And there, they have acquired a Jennyanydots. Good job all around.

wake up babes, new adorable 'terrible bore' just dropped

see Misto simping at the start like he does in the Broadway revival?

arguing with Munk until Munk just shoves him forward (YOU DEAL WITH HIM) and pouting all the time about it. Tugger tweaking his ear. Misto's little stompy frustration as he retreats!

DevinRe Lewis Adams as Tugger and Henry Rhodes as Mistoffelees.
