I just had a video chat with Kwesi Jeffers!!!
He plays Mufasa in the UK touring company.
I think Sarah and Tara/Emilio have seen him!
(listed as ensemble though)

Someone I know is a real Disney nut, she knows like, everyone who works there, she goes to all the parks multiple times a year, I don't know how she does it, lol.
She is friends with Kwesi, and she told him about me, that I'm a huge fan and such, and if he could have a little chat with me, to cheer me up as I'm going through some rough times.
So, she tells me this on a forum, and is like: Nathalie, gimme your skype, the guy who plays Mufasa in London wants to talk to you, I know him.
I'm like: whut ?? o_O I don't have skype :p
She's like: turn on FB, he'll add you ...
I'm thinking: sure :p
He did o_O
So I accept, and I just say "hi" to him through the chat, saying I'm the girl Nele apperently is talking about.
Then he requests a video chat o_O
Oh my God!!
He was in his make-up, had a show in less then an hour.
It was so cool and so sweet of both of them to do this for me!
He told me that she said I was having a hard time right now, and I shouldn't worry, and I shouldn't stress about anything, that it's not worth it.
I told him I have anxiety and panic disorder, and my anxiety is going through the roof right now!!!
I was, just a tad hysterical, haha!
I was shivering and shaking, and smiling from one ear to the other, haha!
He must have thought I was a nutcase :p
He was sooo sweet.
Told me I should come see the show, but since he's touring company I told him the easiest one to see for me is London, so that's a shame though :(
I told him if it wasn't for Lion King I would have never come this far and be where I am now.
He said that really touches him hearing that, because he does the show almost every night, and none of the actors really know how the show / movie effects peoples live's.
I almost cried in front of him! haha
Took me 20 minutes to really calm down, I'm still shaking a little, feeling sick to my stomach, that's the price I had to pay for clicking "accept video chat" haha, I was so scared, lol!
So cool :D
