Once heralded as the trendiest theatrical experience in London, the You Me Bum Bum Train has picked up pop star royalty to add controversy to its bizarre journey.
Madonna ‘disrupted’ a recent performance by ‘prowling on all fours like a cat’ – much to her fellow punters’ bemusement.
The interactive show, in a disused central London office building, invites audience members, known as passengers, to follow real-life scenarios across a maze of interconnected rooms.
In a dizzying 45 minutes, each participant hurtles through different scenes, spending only a few minutes in each.
Yet that strict time-table was disrupted by Madonna, 66, in a room turned into a makeshift zoo, where participants pretended to be animals.
Though the allotted time for feline frolics was five minutes, I hear that the mother-of-six spent 15 minutes padding across the floor, meowing like a cat.
‘Her behaviour messed up that performance as it all works to a strict timetable,’ says a witness. ‘There are only 70 or so participants a night and each move off at five-minute intervals.’
No one was bold enough to remonstrate and she ‘ruined’ the performance, adds an actor.

Prince Harry once allegedly ‘crowd-surfed’ over strangers at the show, which has also attracted Benedict Cumberbatch, Dominic West and Kate Winslet.
Little is known about what happens at each event, devised by art students Kate Bond and Morgan Lloyd, as the audience sign confidentiality agreements.
Madonna was asked for comment last night.
Tom Holland is known for being one of Hollywood’s most down-to-earth actors, who spends his downtime on the golf course in Wimbledon.
More out of the ordinary is that the 28-year-old Spider-Man star takes FaceTime calls from his betrothed ‘between golf swings’, says my man on the fairway.
While he’s working on his handicap, his superstar fiancee Zendaya, 28, flashes up on his phone simply as ‘Z’.
Poppy’s not the only one in the family way!
Poppy Delevingne announced her pregnancy last week, but the model isn’t the only one in the family expecting a new arrival. Her partner Archie Keswick’s sister, Willa, is also pregnant.

Neither child is likely to want for much given the Keswick family founded the £50billion Hong Kong based Jardine Matheson conglomerate.
Archie – Sienna Miller’s 44-year-old ex – and Poppy, 38, are thrilled to be expecting a baby girl, especially as mum-to-be grew up with sisters: supermodel Cara and socialite Chloe.
He is is due to inherit the family estate that includes Belvoir Castle in Leicestershire, but until then, Charles Manners, the Marquess of Granby, has another way to make a quick buck.
‘I cut hair,’ he tells me. ‘It’s my new side hustle.’ One of his first customers was his dear friend Cosmo Lindsay, grandson of Lady Amabel Lindsay.
‘I charged him 100 quid, but if he gets a compliment, I owe him 50 quid,’ he says with a grin. Any aristos need a trim?
Does Babygirl ring bells, Cruz? Cruz?
Nicole Kidman’s new film has a stronger resonance for some more than others.
My spies tell me 19-year-old Cruz Beckham was seen with his 29-year-old girlfriend Jackie Apostel at a screening of Babygirl at the Everyman Cinema in Chelsea last week. The film tells of an affair between an older woman CEO, played by Kidman, and her intern (Harris Dickinson).

Beckham and Apostel made their relationship public in the front row of Victoria Beckham’s fashion show in September, and many mistook the Brazilian musician for VB herself.
Art imitates life, as they say.
Elon Musk and Britney Spears are among those said to have fallen foul of the strict door policy at Berlin’s Berghain nightclub. But not Harry Styles who was partying there last weekend. ‘He was having a great time, and was very friendly,’ one raver said.
‘No one really cared, it’s the perfect place for a famous person to party.’ The singer stood out in his white singlet amid a sea of leather and latex.
