I think that’s the scene during “Grizabella the Glamour Cat” when Cassandra and Alonzo are being a slinky judging couple!

their little moment is in the background, so seeing it right up front doesn’t really make it register!

How To Slink On The Slinker

... interestingly Jason’s stance there is much more of a Munkustrap-style protector stance - broader and more centred, and the arms held wider (though that might be partly that he’s giving Gillian space to move and demonstrate).

Here’s a Jason Lonzo I don’t think I’ve seen on tumblr yet

@jellicle-ho​ IT HIM!!! :D

I love how you tagged me even though I’m the one who posted it 😂😂

It is necessary that you look upon it AGAIN.

“To Aaron, from one jellicle to another. NEVER FORGET your mystical divinity!! Love ????? Alonzo aka Jason G———-“

Love + kisses.

How much do you think the actors and actresses all went to drinks after a long day of rehearsal and discussed their headcannons among each other for their characters and that’s what helped them get into character? Like I headcannon that the actors did this they were like

Here are the three words. Here are the people you dance with. Here’s the main story line

Build it from there.

Like I just wanna see them sitting around a big table and Jason being like “well, /I’m/ Alonzo /looks at Jo/ and I really don’t like rumpleteaser all that much she’s a trouble maker!

Jo: WoT I Am not! /thinks/ no no yeah No that’s canon. Teaser would definitely enjoy pushing Alonzo’s buttons I think. Roll with it. /pokes Jason because she is rumpleteaser in real life/ also “well I think me and Vickie should be buddies /nudges phydilla/ eh eh? Teaser be trying to loosen up this sheltered child.

Phyl: oh you think TEAZER is the one who loosens my girl up? Honey Vicky isn’t as innocent as other people think she is.

I don’t know why I made phyly getto just now. Maybe bc I identify as victoria the most of the lady cats and that’s what I would say to jo. I’m victoria now officially. Ghetto Vicky. Talk shit get hit.

I LOVE IT

Oh no I got high and decided to watch cats 98 high for the first time and y’all... this is the first time I’ve watched Cassandra really closely and this lady is flirting with ALONZO FROM THE START this is a brand new relationship. Of her noticing him before he notices her. Holy shit there’s a whole little story arc here taking place that I never noticed because I was so focused on Alonzo.

I feel like I’m watching from an entirely different point of view and damn this lady has it BAD for him. Follow this thread I’m about to live blog this shit.

I’m sorry it’s blurry and yes a picture of my screen bc I can’t screenshot my version 😠

But that right there? That’s my shit #otp

That is some seriously deep respect Alonzo has for munkustrap. More fuel for my headcannon 🔥

That is some

Deep admiration you have there Alonzo

I don’t ship munk and Alonzo but that is some hero worship there Alonzo it can not be denied

This has slightly altered the way I see Alonzo. I knew that he had deep respect for Munkustrap but not this much.

The puss button is FUN

YOU SEE? and for extra fun there are a COUPLE of moments when he aims the same look at Tugger before remembering himself.

The parts of Cats 1998 that I find incredibly sexy

Munkustrap

His face. The way he moves. So amazingly handsome!

Bombalurina

Her hips. Her voice. I just find everything about Rosemarie Ford so incredibly hot!

The Rum Tum Tugger:

All of him. Everything. I love John Partridge!

Alonzo’s opening part of the Jellicle Ball

The way he says “Rather small.” always makes me feel things!

Sorry, what was that? I couldn’t hear you over the sound of Alonzo’s hips.

Jason Gardiner as Alonzo - Behind the scenes of CATS 1998

YES! More Jason Gardiner Alonzo! High light of my fucking day

I’M EXTREMELY NOT OKAY RN OMG

=,3 He’s adorable.

@jellicle-ho

I love him so much do you know how many times I’ve watched this video over and over because it’s a lot.

unacceptable. too pretty and slinky.

Cameraman: “You’re almost attractive in that, Jason.”

He says 2 seconds after Jason has walked away. After having followed him around for half an hour.

Gillian Lynne (?) says: “You think?”, and the video cuts.

This has such a Harry Potter reaching for Cho’s hand and grabbing the sugar bowl vibe to it. Kinda feel bad for the guy that this awkward moment is now forever captured on tape. So bad, in fact, that I have to share it with everyone. Because it’s totally relatable! (Nice comments only, these are real people!)

Jason: *flounce*

Oh look it’s my two favorite CATS boys, Jason and Bryn! And an Etcetera being cute. (That’s Bryn in the background, showing off his heavily taped fingers.)

CUTIES!!!!

Look at what Phyllida just posted!!! Ahh

... thank you Phyllida.

In today’s anatomy lesson we have Alonzo showing us the Latissimus Dorsi. A big, lean, superficial muscle that covers the lower back and goes up to the armpit. Its primary function is to move the arms backwards, as demonstrated here.

look @jellicle-ho not only is alonzo slinky and pretty but he is EDUCATIONAL

i am thinkin..g about...

him...eyelashes

Okay but this little detail is one of the reasons why I fell in love with alonzo’s costume design. Like the use of the white mascara on his eyelashes just gives the whole costume that chimera vibe of whatever’s on one side is the opposite on the other.

and also makes him so prETTY

Jason Gardiner as Alonzo

SLINKY BASTARD stop being so pretty.

Y’all Jason Gardiner has not only played rum tum tugger before but he’s also played Gus and munkustrap

I believe there is a recording on Youtube of him singing... I think Magical Mr. Mistoffelees. It’s neat.

There is! Of him as tugger!

Yes. I listened to it like.... 4 times in a row. Lol

but only audio :(

Sadly. But hey, it’s still something. Omg, just imagine how pretty Jason would look in that gorgeous Tugger make-up! My goodness, I’d draw it instantly if I could find a picture of it.

Almost as pretty as John Partridge in his fancy fancy Alonzo makeup. ... when he isn't posing for Cursed Photos.
