Regarding Baby Griz:

Marie Berson: I'll be personally very curious to learn a little more about this cat that is you in a first time with the jellicle before the arrival of I've already got them! Did she have a name? A role?

Prisca: " what happiness to play the opening track with the whole company! This is a very important moment for me. Of course she has a name! Her name is baby griz but I call her grizzy baby. She has the same colors that I've already got them at the level of the face. She's as pure as Victoria and doesn't know yet the pains of life. It's a kitten. To me, she loop the loop. She represents the beginning of life, within a family, before the choice and the difficulties...

People often ask me why I've already got them is not young and beautiful at the end. In fact for me we see her at the outset, in grizzy baby, like a new life, a blank page to write. This is what I've already got them was small. It's in this form she gets back from the jellicosphère: in kitten. She allows me to have a history with the group, a sensation of having danced with them before I was no longer able to do so. And she's so happy and light before the weight of the pain of I've already got them."
