Desdemona, Cicero ’ s Cat (from “Mutt and Jeff”) Moushi, the Van Daans’ cat in the play \* The Diary of Anne Frank. \* When our school put this play on, the part of Moushi was played by Sir Gregory, a silver Persian owned by a member of the Thespians. He was very calm, although some cast members thought he might meow ad-lib. He earned 3 Thespian points. 🙂 ---
