As producers and close collaborators, we are thrilled to announce the next chapter in our theatrical career: the launch of our new production company, Origin Story Productions. Theatre doesn’t start on opening night, it starts when someone risks saying an idea out loud. We’re here for that moment. We are beyond excited to begin this next chapter with a thrilling season on Broadway and in the West End ahead!
- Christopher Ketner and Hunter Regian, Co-Founders of Origin Story Productions

When I was 12 years old my mom took me to see the National Tour of Cats in Ft Worth, TX. At intermission I looked at my mom and said THAT is what I’m going to do for the rest of my life…28 years later I’m honored to be producing @catsjellicleball on BROADWAY!

First day of rehearsals and the ballroom is officially alive! As a co-producer, there’s nothing quite like watching an extraordinary team like this one gather for the first time. This show has brought together the most incredible group of actors, dancers, musicians, and creatives to bring Cats: The Jellicle Ball to Broadway with bold imagination and deep love. Thrilled to be co-producing alongside my partner @ketnerrocks and astounded to be working with such an incredible creative team. The energy today was electric, joyful, and unmistakably Jellicle. Let the journey begin!
