“Indeed, my production of Andrew ‘Cats’ proudly declared for decades ‘Now and Forever,’” he added. “As a producer, you dream that a show will run forever,” Mackintosh said Friday. Shortly before the COVID-induced lockdown, the show was averaging about $1 million per week. Last week, the show’s box office hit just over $865,000, filling 81% of its seats.
