Disney's The Lion King Jr.
Renaissance Charter School of St. Lucie is proud to bring Disney's The Lion King Jr. to the historic Lyric Theatre stage for three captivating performances April 28th - 29th at 7pm and April 30th at 2pm. Come join our amazing cast of 92 as we celebrate all creatures in the Circle of Life!
A lively stage adaptation of the Academy Award-winning 1994 Disney animated film, The Lion King Jr. 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. With music and lyrics by Elton John and Tim Rice, additonal music and lyrics by Lebo M., Mark Mancina, Jay Rifkin, and Hans Zimmer, and book by Roger Allers and Irene Mecchi, Julie Taymor's vision has been brought to life for audiences all over the world.
