Zaire Adams is headed to the spring to star in the Disney Musical Lion King. His parents tell FOX6 they discovered his voice at age three, while he was singing with the car radio.
Zaire Adams to star in the Disney Musical Lion King
The 4th grade students in Alysia Stewart-Browns class at Milwaukee’s Engleburg School learned together all school year long. 10-year-old Zaire Adams joined his classmates only six weeks ago. He just wrapped up singing and acting as an orphan in Twist that closed in Atlanta in October.
It’s his big smile, and big voice that landed Zaire a 10-month long gig at Las Vegas’ Mandalay Bay Hotel.
Zaire will leave Milwaukee again in March to play the lead role of young Simba in Disney’s Lion King.
Zaire’s well on his way to being a star. He played Munchkin #1 in Milwaukee’s First Stage Theater production of the Wiz.
Lion King is currently performing at Durham Performing Arts Center, Durham NC.
