Not ‘the Rum Tum Tugger is a terrible bore’ but 'der Rum Tum Tugger bringt Bewegung ins Haus’: the Rum Tum Tugger brings energy/movement into the house. Ie, he gets the party started. 👀 Allow Mistoffelees to show you how.
You’ve messed up a perfectly good Cassandra is what you did, look at her, she’s forgotten her dignity.
… Mistoffelees never said he didn’t like the energy.
Bonus: vibing

a bomba has dropped onto your dash

Petra Ilse Dam, Vienna revival 23 June 2022 (footage by @cryptidvoidwritings and @falasta). Being Cruelly Spurned by Dominik Hees. Anneka Dacres as Cassandra, Gerben Grimmius as Skimbleshanks, Matthew Levick as Bill Bailey, and Riccardo Sinisi as Alonzo.
The Rum Tum Tugger is a terrible bore!
... you touch the Mistoffelees? You bap him on the shoulder and expect him to fawn over you like one of your fan club? Oh! Dramatic hissy fits for Tugger!!
Alex Snova as Tugger and Riccardo Sinisi as Mistoffelees; Vienna revival, March 2022.
@etchif That’s a great point! Although each of the three Vienna Mistoffelees for whom we have footage interprets that line differently.
Riccardo’s Mistoffelees above is sarcastic and does not approve of this particular party atmosphere, thank you very much, he is much offend.
Matt Levick’s Mistoffelees is much baby and confuse? maybe a bit worried? what mood is this that Tugger has brought to the house? how to cope with everyone suddenly going wild?? his voice is uncertain too, it’s adorable. help tugger is paying him attention, he’ll just run over here and panic a bit.
(With Dominik Hees as Tugger, 24 May 2022, footage by @falasta and @cryptidvoidwritings)
But Stephen Martin Allan? oh yep, he is definitely feeling The Mood in The House. He’s sassy about it - looks around at what everyone’s doing, gestures to The Shenanigans, delivers the line with some bite - but he’s into it. (That little smirk at the end after Tugger baps him and does a hip thrust - curse you, spotlight washout.)
(With Dominik’s Tugger, George Maniadis as Admetus and Anneka Dacres as Cassandra, 23 June 2022, @cryptidvoidwritings and @falasta again.)
And after delivering the line…. well. Speak with your hips, boy.

NO TOUCH!
[Vienna Revival, March 2022]
omg 😂
When Jo Lucy Rackham’s covering Rumpelteazer, she and Jan-Eike Majert’s Mungojerrie are irrepressible trouble. And Cassandra (Anneke Brunekreeft) is having none of it 😒
Also Florian Fetterle as Munkustrap, Stephen Martin Allan as Mistoffelees, and Petra Ilse Dam as Tantomile.
Plato has acquired a Ball! And a brief Tugger attention.
Also some fellow Tugger stans!
(Meanwhile, guess who has to pick up after him.)
Lewis Rimmer as Plato, Jarrad Green as Tugger, Grace Crugnale as Cassandra, Cory Betts as Pouncival, and Sam Bateson as Mistoffelees. Oasis cast 13, May 2023 (X)
Girls’ relevee - and the mid-ball conjuring turn! Oasis is the only official production that still retains this little bit of showmanship from Mistoffelees.

Carbuckety and Cassandra are girlfriend and boyfriend!

(Maybe cuddles? He’s good at those!)
