Lion Photos Biography

source(google.com.pk)
The Lion King: The Broadway Musical celebrated its world premiere at the Orpheum Theatre in
Minneapolis, MN, on July 8, 1997. Now playing at the Minskoff Theater on Broadway, and in a
variety of other locations around the globe, this musical version of Disney's greatest
animated feature ever has already drawn rave reviews for its dazzling special effects and
staging, the inspired music by Tim Rice, Elton John, Hans Zimmer, and Lebo M., and for its
nearly magical performance by a cast using masks and puppetry combined with live acting to
convey the atmosphere of The Lion King.
Appearance
"I'm the oldest, I'm the strongest, I'm the smartest[...]"
—Nuka describes himself
Nuka has grayish, dark, chestnut fur with noticeable tinges of reddish-brown, a dusty black
mane, blood-red eyes, and dark eye shades. Nuka has his mother's ear stripes and freckles
that disappear occasionally. Unlike most adult males, Nuka's mane is much thinner and
scruffier compared to the manes of Simba and even his younger brother, Kovu. This is likely
due to poor hygiene and lack of self-care. He is lanky and thin, which is again most likely
because of a lack of bathing, malnutrition, and poor care, as he was known to be plagued by
termites.
Personality
"Wha-wha-HE LET HER GO! If that were me..."
—Nuka thinks on how he would hurt Kiara
Nuka was full of angst and brooding for the first half of the film as an adolescent,
complaining about not being the Chosen One in favor of the younger Kovu and not receiving
Zira's attention. He made Vitani stagger back by clipping a root she was tugging on and
laughing right afterwards, establishing him as sadistic like his mother but to a much
lesser degree. NukaSarcastic
Nuka reluctantly singing Kovu a sarcastic lullaby During "My Lullaby," Nuka reluctantly
sang Kovu a sarcastic lullaby.
Ironically, Nuka was more like Scar than Kovu (besides the fact that they look alike): For
both Scar and Nuka envied their brother, who was chosen to be king over them. He seemed to
be somewhat of a pyromaniac, screaming avid, "FIRE!" when setting the Pride Lands alight.
Finally, he was violent, arrogant, and impulsive and tried to prove he was better than
Kovu, but died in the process, making him selfish and vain.
“I wanted to go for elegance, not cute.”
-- Julie Taymor, director
This production broke new ground in theatrical technology, attempting to bring to the
stage such vast and sweeping elements as the rolling African savannah and the famous
wildebeest stampede in which Mufasa is killed by his brother Scar. Far from shrinking from
the challenge or toning down the scale of the film, director Julie Taymor succeeded in the
superhuman feat of reproducing the film's vastness through ingenious staging techniques and
experimental methods worthy of Walt Disney Theatrical, producers of the wildly popular
Beauty nd the Beast Broadway musical, which also debuted at the Orpheum.
