Funny story: In rehearsal the other day all the wildebeest were running out and zazu and mufasa were waiting to come on stage and someone was holding the curtain open for us (this was a filmed rehearsal so we could see what we were doing) the person holding the curtain was not paying attention and all the wildebeest had ran on to stage and on the video everyone saw zazu and mufasa kissing backstage (zazu played by a girl and mufasa a boy) and everyone started laughing cause they were secretly dating and then while we were watching it the second time they kissed while them kissing was on the screen
I got casted as adult simba in our production and well I’m really nervous and have social anxiety, what are some tips for over coming fear and performing well in front of large audiences?
Hello, I’m Jonah! I played Young Simba in this Lion King performance! I would say, for me at least, start small. Performing in front of your family members, which for me is harder to do than performing in front of a full house lol. Put yourself out there. You’re always going to be nervous before a show. But wait until you get on that stage, I promise you’ll feel more excitement than anxiousness. Not to get technical, but the feeling of anxiousness and excitement are actually the exact same in your brain. Dot tell yourself that you’re nervous, tell yourself that you’re exited! I hope this helped! Break a leg bro!
I was at Springhouse Smyrna tn and we barrowed the costumes like the zazu and most all of them i wore the zebra costume at Springhouse but this video is from a different church
The whole grade is doing this on may smt we get to dance a lot it's going to be fun! And we have a surprise dance at the end but my whole garden doesn't get to play any role but last year's grade got to play their own but since they have “favorites” we can't play sooo... Plus we kinda got plastic water bottles banned at our schooollll
@@BabyJofficial1well I have seen the play several times in london the Lyceum theatre. It may depend of the actor but most times rafik is more movie like than the energetic theatrical moved character.
Hi, my name is Jonah. I’m 13, and by your grammar and name on RUclips, it seems you’re a similar age. Young actors, especially around this age already have their anxiety levels high just because they might not play sports at school. From experience, I’ve felt out of place. So, tip for next time, DON’T SHOW HATE. This is a platform where people can come out and express who they are, not be criticized just because they aren’t broadway level. The boy playing Simba was about my age, and some of the ensemble was around 7 years old. Although I definitely do agree that Nala (Ava), Scar (Issac), and Timon (Lily) are all great singers, most people in this cast haven’t had vocal lessons or coaches. The thing you need to understand about musical theater, Tara, is that you just have to be decent at either acting, or singing to put on a great show. When you can get cast in a show (if you will ever), come back to me with something or at least this quality. Step into their shoes, go through what they had to go through, and then I might listen.
Dang Jonah!! I second that, all of it! Honestly, what is the point of showing hate anyway? The only point of it, is to show people your true maturity level. Everyone in this cast was PHENOMENAL!! And if you met each and every one of them in person, Tara, you would be met with so much love and support from all of them. Being in this show was the one of the most beautiful experiences I have ever had! And a big part of it was the cast. I was sick during the show and it was awful, I played Rafiki, but I pushed through it and did the best I could. And I’m going to be honest, I wouldn’t have been able to do it if it wasn’t for my amazing cast mates and super loving directors. They encouraged me to keep pushing through even when my voice was giving out. And I love all of them so dearly, and to say things like that, really shows a lot about your character. Please, before you go leaving comments like this on other people’s performances, think about how it would make you feel? Treat others how you would want to be treated. I hope you are having a good day, and I hope you can learn to be more loving.
The kid playing Scar is awesome
I really love Be prepared!!
That was bloody fantastic
Scar was AMAZING.
Scar was OUTSTANDING. Brovo to everyone though!
The boy playing little Simba has a bright future in acting!

Omg I’m doing a play and it’s the lion king in zazu😊
I am young simba on Broadway
And I imagine if The Lion King Jr 2022 has Rowan in it
I was at Springhouse Smyrna tn and we barrowed the costumes like the zazu and most all of them i wore the zebra costume at Springhouse but this video is from a different church

This is perfect, but to make it more fantastic rafiki needs to be just a little less theatrical!
I think they did that intentionally. If you’ve seen Lion King, Rafiki IS like that. Also remember, this is theater 😂😂
@@BabyJofficial1well I have seen the play several times in london the Lyceum theatre. It may depend of the actor but most times rafik is more movie like than the energetic theatrical moved character.
ooOoOooOo comparing my performance to Broadway’s/ the West End’s I’LL TAKE IT!!
@@arianamarlow8571😂😂😂
At least the actor of Zazu is a male this time
Sammy
They didn’t have a very good cast the only good actors and singers in this are adult Nala Scar and Timon
Please remember that these are children so they won't be brodway level. Now with that in mind, they did very good for their age.

Imagine your son does this and he ain’t a good actor or singers? How would you react to that?
