Box office trends have shown us a slew of live-action Disney remakes recently. The latest of which, 2019’s “The Lion King”, stars Seth Rogan, Chiwetel Ojiofor and Donald Glover among others.
The film also comes to life on stage through March 1st at the Marcus Center for the Performing Arts.
“The costumes and stage design are unbelievable,” said WTMJ’s John Mercure who saw the show Thursday night.
Kayla Cyphers (Nala) and Jurgen Hooper (Zazu) joined John in our WTMJ studios to discuss their roles in the classic Broadway show.
“Nala really shines,” John said. “And Jurgen steals every scene that he’s in.”
