Kevin was the one and only, Ed the hyena in the
original cast of "The Lion King" on Broadway.
He played Ed, for what I understand, 18 months.
Here is a beautiful castshot of all three hyenas
together, taken by Per Breiehagen.
From left to right: Kevin Cahoon as Ed, Tracy
Nicole Chapman as Shenzi, and Stanley Wayne Mathis as Banzai. According to Julie Taymor, writer of the book:
"The Lion King - Pride Rock on Broadway", "For the first
two weeks of rehearsals, the choral singers concentrated
solely on learning their vocal parts with Lebo [M] as
choral director and arranger and Joe [Church] as music
director." Stanley Wayne Mathis, Kevin, and Tracy Nicole Chapman
rehearse with musical director Joe Church. Nicely taken by
Kenneth Van Sickle.
