EXTRA! EXTRA!! READ ALL ABOUT IT!! 

We are beyond thrilled to announce that Jose has recently been cast as SIMBA in Disneyland Paris’ spectacular show, “The Lion King: Rhythms of the Pride Lands.”  That said, as of September 5th, Jose will be relocating to France for a 7-month contract. 

In this exclusive show, you will be able to relive iconic moments from The Lion King film, already popular with thousands of spectators! Get ready for 30 minutes of singing, dancing, and acrobatics as the talented cast entertains you in the state-of-the-art, 1200-seat “Frontierland Theater,” the largest theater in Disneyland, Paris. 

MESSAGE FROM JOSE: 

“Many don’t know this, but being on Broadway has always been a long-time dream/aspiration of mine. More specifically, being cast as Simba in Broadway’s “The Lion King” Musical. That’s why this new venture, while dream adjacent, means so much to me. I may not be Simba on Broadway, but I am SIMBA, nonetheless! 

Thank you, Disneyland, Paris, for this awesome opportunity. I couldn’t be more excited, and I can’t wait to be able to (finally) bring this character to life.”
