Simba
"Where has the starlight gone?
Dark is the day
How can I find
My way home?"*
"The spirituality and sacredness of the piece is important; this is an epic story. Simba is a damaged being, who actually believes he killed his father. He has to find his place in the world, and learn how to be a leader."
Julie Taymor
"My first focus was the story’s through-line of The Lion King’s young hero, Simba...Every prodigal son needs to pass certain trials, tests that hurtle him to the bottom before he is allowed to come back on top."
Julie Taymor
