About the process: “The Circle of Life”
So you want to be an actor? Jump on the stage and play with
us this summer. There are fabulous roles for everyone in
this classic tale.
This is what the summer will be like:
During rehearsals, with instructor/director Elizabeth Nelson, you will
journey through a wide variety of fun drama activities that will help you with
stamina, coordination, breathing, alignment, physical and vocal attack, and
a lot more. Clare Bennett will work with the cast on mime and improvisation
and on creating great movement. Then we put it all together with fabulous
costumes and sets created by the morning classes, and have a fabulous show.
About the play:
The Lion King is the story of a young lion prince living in the flourishing African Pride Lands. Born into
the royal family, precocious cub Simba spends his days exploring the sprawling savanna grasslands
and idolizing his kingly father, Mufasa, while youthfully shirking the responsibility his position in life
requires. When an unthinkable tragedy, orchestrated by Simba’s wicked uncle, Scar, takes his father’s
life, Simba flees the Pride Lands, leaving his loss and the life he knew behind. Eventually companioned
by two hilarious and unlikely friends, Simba starts anew. But when weight of responsibility and a
desperate plea from the now ravaged Pride Lands come to find the adult prince, Simba must take on a
formidable enemy and fulfill his destiny to be king. A vibrant and exciting tale from the great creatives
at Disney, The Lion King is a story of love and redemption that nobody should miss.
Music and Lyrics by Elton John & Tim Rice
Book by Roger Allers & Irene Mecchi
