Ok so am I crazy or would Patti Labelle make a good Rafiki. Now I'm only going by voice, I don't know how well she'd play the part but I'd pay to see it... or better yet hear it. Now please don't make this into a discussion about how her voice isn't the same as it was thirty years ago. She's outlast many of the same performers that we hold up to the heavens and can outsing them as well. But I shouldn't get into that either. Just a thought that popped into my mind.
