[PRESS] Jennie attending Jentle Garden Pop Up in LA
Jerrie and Jelly say FUCK OFF MATE
Macavity says wot i was only going to disembowel him a little
meanwhile Munkustrap is swooning very prettily
Oasis cast 11: Benjamin McMillan as the damsel in distress, Benjamin Stacey as Mungojerrie, Katie Hahn as Jellylorum, Domenico Ramelli as Macavity.
And for bonus angst or crack, depending on your feelings: on this night, due to a lack of covers, Macavity’s two minions who carried off Deuteronomy were none other than our favourite two orange stripey kids!
(Look at the shoes: hers are almost white, his are almost black. We also get a glimpse of orange and white under his mask in another frame but it’s too blurry to translate well into stills. The only other cats offstage at this point are Plato (who is Macavity), Misto (busy getting ready for his solo), and Alonzo and Gus (Mac decoys).)
Since Rumpelteazer had to participate in the ‘Macavity’ song, Mungojerrie brought fake Deut in alone… but honey you’re not subtle we see that orange and black wig under that mask.
Usually I assume the henchcats/minions are completely separate characters, but this time? Oooh this is too juicy. I’m gonna call this canon for this night: that was actually them under the disguises!
M&R carried him off, then Demeter sang I might mention Mungojerrie with Rumpelteazer right there onstage with her. Guys, they’re onto you. They know where your silly little side gig has led you, even though you didn’t mean for it to go that far…
… and now where’s it got you?
“wait what’s going on I didn’t realise this was actually serious please don’t OH SHIT I got him hurt worse by distracting him I’M SORRY MUM”
Jerrie’s day keeps getting better and better. Look what you did. You messed up a perfectly good tribe protector is what you did, look at him, he’s got lacerations.
… and Teazer is on the other side of the stage. Is that an incitement to cowardice (“she isn’t by my side, I am paralysed by indecision”) or bravery (“I must get to her somehow!”)? Who knows, but eventually….
… a decision is made.
And when he stands up, the whole tribe stands with him.
Oh, btw, we later got a backstage pic for M&R as henchcats: Ben Stacey and Brittany Tooms-Peel.
