Jemima (Sillabub)
'Can you find your way blind when you're lost in the street?' Jemima is a female kitten, dark reddish-brown with a white bib. Her wig is the same colours, only spiked (she looks so CUTE!). She's a really adorable kitten. She's the youngest in the tribe, and one of the first cats to accept Grizabella. She sings 'Memory' with Griz, as well as a few lines in other songs. She looks kinda like Demeter, and somebody once said that she's Dem's kitten, or sister. This I don't believe, though I see where the person who said this gets the idea. Jemima is called Sillabub in the Broadway and US Tour productions. She's one of Tugger's teeny-boppers, though not at ALL his most devoted one. Jemi has been said to be in love with Misto, Alonzo, Tumblebrutus....sheesh! People call her 'understanding, compassionate, wise...' etc. (not the cat) Jemima is one of the four cats that people seem to make costumes of the most, the others being Bombalurina, Demeter, & Victoria. But Jemi's in the top.
