Today's THE VIEW featured the segment of Whoopi's one-night stint in THE LION KING on Broadway. Looked like a fun night in the theatre, with as minimal distraction of the story as possible during this stunt.
Meaning no disrespect, I had to laugh, though, watching the white Music Director and white Associate Director teach these African songs, words, and dance to this African-American woman.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
