Story teller 1: As the morning sun rose high over the African plain, animals and birds gathered at the foot of Pride Rock. Rafiki held Simba to the sky.

One of the animals: There he is! There’s the new Prince.

All: Welcome! Welcome Prince Simba.

Story teller 1: Scar was somewhere else

Zazu: I'm here to announce that King Mufasa is on his way. .. So you'd better have a good excuse for missing the ceremony this morning. Now Scar, don't look at me that way... HELP!

Mufasa: Scar! ... Sarabi and I didn't see you at the presentation of Simba.

Scar: {Faking astonishment} That was today? Zazu: Yes, well, you should have been first in line!

2. Music: “ Circle of life”

Story teller 1: Mufasa showed Simba all the kingdom and gave him some good advice.

Mufasa: Remember, my son. You will one day be the King, and a good king must respect all creaturas, for we exist together in the great Circle of Life.

Story teller 1: Scar had a plan to kill the king and his cub Simba.

3. Music: “ Be Prepared”

Prince Simba: Hi Uncle Scar! I have seen the whole of my future kingdom

Scar: Even beyond the northern border?

Prince Simba: well no. My father has forbidden me to go there.

Scar: Quite right Only the bravest lions go there. An elephant graveyard is no place for a young Prince.

Story teller 1: Simba Loocked for Nala. He had decided to visit the elephant graveyard with Nala that day. Zazu was with them.

Nala: Where are we going Simba? It’s creepy down here. Where are we?

Prince Simba: This is the elephant’s graveyard. Only brave lions come here. That’s what Scar told me.

Zazu: You must leave here immediately. You are in great danger. We're way beyond the boundary of the Pride Lands.

4. Music: “ The Elephant Graveyard”

Story teller 1: Then Three hyenas emerged

Shenzi: Well, well, well, What have we got here? A trio of trespassers!

Zazu: And quite by accident, let me assure you. A simple navigational error. Eh heh, heh …

Shenzi: Whoa, whoa, wait wait wait... I know you. You're Mufasa's son

Zazu: I, madam, am the king's majordomo.

Shenzi: Do you know what we do to kings who step out of their kingdom?

Simba: Puh. You can't do anything to me.

Zazu: Uhh... technically, they can. We are on their land. Look at the sun. It's time to go!

Shenzi: What's the hurry? We'd looove you to stay around for dinner We could have .. "lion"! Get it? Lion ! {laughs Oh wait, wait, wait. I would like a "cub" sandwich.

Nala: The hyenas have caught Zazu. They are going to fry him in the frying pan. Simba: {Now near the hyenas} Hey! Why don't you pick on somebody your own size? Simba roars very softly. grrrrr!

Shenzi: Oo-hoo... that was it? Hah. Do it again... come on.

5. Music: “ Simba Goes Monster”

{Simba opens his mouth to roar again, but we hear a full-grown lion roar.}( It’s Mufasa)

Shenzi: Huh?! Oh Mufasa. Hi! Is he your son. So cute…We a so sorry…We didn’t know…. It was a little mistake..

Mufasa: I’m very disappointe in you Simba. You disobeyed me.

Prince Simba: I was only trying to be brave like you.

Mufasa: Being brave doesn’t mean you go looking for trouble. Look at the stars , from there the great Kings of the past look down on us. Just remember that they’ll always be there to guide you, and so will I.

Prince Simba: I will remember!

Story teller 1: Meanwhile Scar had another plan to get rid of Mufasa and Simba.

Scar: Wait here for your father Simba.

6. Music: “ Mufasa’s Death, Stampede”

Story teller 2: The hyenas started a stampede among a herd of wildebeest. They were going towards Simba.

7. Music: “ Mufasa’s Death, Stampede”

Mufasa: Simba Don’t be afraid! I’m coming.

Story teller2 : Mufasa rescued Simba and was on a rock, above the wildebeest.

Mufasa Help me Scar!

Story teller 2: But…… Scar pushed him.

Scar: Long Live the King. jo jo…

Prince Simba: Father, Father

Scar: Simba, what have you done? This is all your fault. The King is dead and you must never show your face in the pride again. Run away and never return.

Story teller 2: Simba ran away to the jungle until he fainted. When he opened his eyes he saw a warthog Pumbaa and Tomon a meerkat.

8. Music: “ Hakuna”

Timon: Jeez, it's a lion! {Jumping up on Pumbaa} Run, Pumbaa! Move it!

Pumbaa: Hey, Timon. It's just a little lion. Look at him. He's so cute, and all alone! Can we keep him? Can we keep him?

Timon: {Yelling into Pumbaa's ear, which creates a reverberating effect} Pumbaa, are you nuts? We're talking about a lion. Lions eat guys like us.

Pumbaa: But he's so little.

Timon: He's gonna get bigger.

Pumbaa: {Seen from Timon's point of view on the ground, with a huge nose) Maybe he'll be on our side.

Timon: A--huh! That's the stupidest thing I ever heard. Maybe he'll b-- ...Hey, I got it! What if he's on our side? You know, having a lion around might not be such a bad idea.

Pumbaa: So we keeping 'im?

Timon: Of course.

Pumbaa: you nearly died. We saved you.

Prince Simba: Thanks for your help, but it doesn’t matter. I have nowhere to go.

Timon: Stay with us Put your past behind you Remember” Hakuna matata -no worries. That’s the way we live.

9. Music: “ Hakuna, beginning”

Story teller 2: Simba stayed for some years. Then one day he met Nala

Pumbaa: Oh this lioness is going to kill me! Help Simba! I’m going to die. Your best friend is going to die.

Prince Simba: I know you, you are Nala

Nala: Oh Simba. I thought you had died. I’m so happy to see you again! And you are so, so big!

Prince Simba: You also look wonderful Nala.

Nala: You have to come back. Scar is so terrible. The animals are dying. There isn’t any food. With you alive, he has no right to the throne. All the animal are afraid of him. He is so cruel!

Prince Simba: I can’t go back. I’m not fit to be a king. I killed my father.

Nala: You could be. It’s beautiful here. I see why you like it, but you are hiding from the future. Scar killed your father and tried to kill you. You must come back.

Story teller 2: Simba felt confused. One day, he was drinking water in the lake and he heard a voice, it was his father Mufasa.

10. Music: “ The Circle of Life”

Mufasa: You must take your place in the Circle of Life. You are my Son and the one true King.

( A lightining bolt scorched the sky)
