We asked Lion King Associate Director Jeff Lee about your question, and heres what he had to say about Julie Taymores vision for this moment in the show:

Julies idea always was that since Mufasa needed to have a very heart-to-heart conversation with Simba about a very serious topic, he needed to strip himself of his crown. In this way, it would not be the formality of a King speaking to the young Prince, but instead, a much more intimate and poignant discussion between father and son.

DisneyOn Broadway, this is a very touching song. Thank you for posting!

I'm a bit confused why Mufasa takes his mask off during the song?

Are you also associated with Disney on Ice aswell?

Cheers!

I am so happy to see the actors have darker skin in this version. I always thought it was strange african characters were so yellowish. Way to go casting directors!

Saw this in Toronto last night. AMAZING! Probably of all the voices ive found looking for the songs they had my favourite voices. (but all of the performers were talented)

One dislike?

It appears that Scar has somehow managed to resurrect, and learned to watch Youtube at the same time.

[puppypersonLOTR]
