The Lion King musical:
Behind the scenes of the theatre show
One young actor playing the role of Simba in The Lion King has told Newsround that he got the job after he was spotted singing in church.
Daniel who is ten, had never performed on stage in a big theatre show before, and says: "I've not had a lot of experience with acting, I got seen in church singing and then one of the teachers asked me to come and do auditions."
After being successful and securing the role of Simba, Daniel said it felt "really good - I felt so proud of myself".
Daniel was speaking to Newsround along with his co-star, ten-year-old Harmony, who plays the young Nala in the show.
