Continuing the 100th anniversary celebrations of 2026, Gillian Lynne’s Book of Particular Cats - A Memoir is the much-anticipated second part of Dame Gillian Lynne's autobiography. Published in June, it tells of a life well lived and explores the personal, star-studded stories that defined her extraordinary career.
Drawing inspiration from T. S. Eliot's timeless Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats alongside the feline characters of the world-renowned musical CATS, Gillian Lynne reflects on the people and events that shaped her life and work.
It is a hallowed and intimate glimpse at a theatrical legacy which has spanned a century, documenting her momentous life with charm, candour and comedic flair, and painting an unrivalled portrait of dance, theatre and artistry.

The Lynne and Land Foundation is a charitable organisation founded by renowned dancer, director and choreographer Dame Gillian Lynne with her husband, actor Peter Land, to encourage, nurture and support aspiring young and talented students to realise their full potential in the artistic field.
The idea for the Foundation came from a conversation a few years ago about how fortunate and grateful they both were for having people helping them early on in their respective careers .
Supported by a knowledgeable and experienced group of Patrons and Trustees, the Foundation helps students of the choreographic arts, drama and musical theatre to achieve their full potential by providing Scholarships and Grants to selected schools and organisations for the performing arts.
