SOME of the cast of Disney's The Lion King are pictured taking a look around Southampton as they settle in. 

Richard Hurst who plays Scar, Nokwanda Khuzwayo who plays Nala, Jean-Luc Guizonne who plays Mufasa, Nosipho Nkonqa who plays Rafiki and Stephenson Ardern-Sodje who plays Simba were seen eyeing up the superyachts outside the Southampton Harbour Hotel at Ocean Village Marina.

Set against the majesty of the Serengeti Plains and to the evocative rhythms of Africa, Disney's multi-award-winning musical is a unique theatrical experience.
