The 1982 Broadway cast of Cats
A recommendation by Jtron3000

Everybody knows Cats was once the longest-running musical on Broadway with 6,138 consecutive performances.
What not everyone knows is that over 2,000 of those shows occurred within the first year of the production’s opening.
The 1982 cast did so much meth and snorted so much coke that they used to perform the show upwards of 12 times a day, usually without an audience
True Story: Mr. Mistofolees once went on a 36 hour bender in which he performed the opening dance number for the second act an astounding 77 times in a row before the other Jellicle cats tried to intervene.
Long story short, Jellylorum ended up in the ICU with his jaw in pieces, literally in pieces. The doctor on call that night said he had to put the thing back together like a jigsaw puzzle.
It took 6 (count'em 6) Jellicle cats to pull Mistofolees off of him.
