In the musical production Cats, Electra is one of the youngest female kittens in the tribe of Jellice cats. Like many of the other young feline characters, she is in awe of the Rum Tum Tugger, a flirtatious rogueish male main character.
Electra is quite similar to , another Jellicle chorus-kitten, in appearance (striped and dark) and personality. Electra is regarded as darker in color, and less excitable. She is sometimes believed to be her sister.
Electra is considered a sweet, solemn quiet kitten, probably owing to her predominantly background role as a chorus member.
In the video, she is very close to Jennyanydots.
Unlike some of the other named Jellicle tribed characters (Victoria and Jemima), Electra only appears in group dances and does not have a signature song or dance. However, in a few tours she has been in 'Macavity the Mystery Cat' as a dancer.
As a chorus kitten, she is often omitted from smaller productions such as tours. And she also touches and accepts Grizabella back into the tribe.
