Broadway productions since. Out of costume & off stage she is relatively shy & quiet, not to open with new

Dureena Matthews-Grizabella
She is about five feet seven inches tall, with a mane of fiery red curls, that isn't easily tamed. She
has cat-like eyes, as in that they are a kind of yellow-green color. She can tend to be rather shy around those that she doesn't know, & even still around those that she does know. When she is in costume though, she is a totally different personality. She feels as though in costume she is in effect wearing a mask, hiding her inner self. Her father was abusive to her, her brother & their mother. She was lucky, in that she hadn't been in the house when her father had totally lost it & beat her mother to death, her brother had tried to stop him, but their father had been so out of control that he'd just thrown him off, actually breaking his back. Shortly afterwards her father took his own life. Her brother is still alive, but paralyzed from the waist down, so he doesn't even leave the apartment that they share. At 20 years old, she is delighted to be in CATS, & hopes that with this & her weekend job, she'll be able to continue taking care of her brother, who's name is Gideon, & 19 years old.
