Zazu
Mufasa's majordomo,
he is the chief servant/butler
in the household of the
royal lion family and
as such is loyal to the king.
"It was decided that a puppet version of Zazu would be
more effective than a mask."
Julie Taymor
"Zazu is the last vestige of colonialism on the African continent. The role involves doing so many things at the same time: singing, acting, dancing, and puppetry. When it all falls into place, the puppet takes on a life of its own, and it's a magical moment."
Geoff Hoyle, originator of the role on Broadway
