All these countries have had productions so far, except the Philippines and Thailand. Buyi Zama (2002–2016), Zama Magudulela (2002 up to the present day), Brown Lindiwe Mkhize (starting in 2005), Futhi Mhlongo (2000–2004; 2010–2018), Tshidi Manye (2000 up to the present day), Gugwana Dlamini (2002– up to present day), Thandazile A. Soni (2002–2010; 2012 up to the present day), and Mpume Sikakane (2002 up to the present day) are the actresses who've been performing as either leading or stand-bys to Rafiki for the longest time, having performed in several productions. The hyenas, who heard Scar's betrayal and are still starving, tear him to shreds. Scar calls for Sarabi and demands to know why the lionesses are not hunting. The Japanese and Korean productions also stand out since never throughout them the productions had leading African actresses. As of June 27, 2010, nine minutes of the Broadway version were cut, among them the entire "Morning Report" musical number. Simba confronts her and saves his friend, but recognizes the lioness as Nala. THE LION KING opened at London’s historic Lyceum Theatre in 1999. Nala fiercely rebukes him and resolves to leave the Pride Lands to find help. Simba grows to adulthood in the jungle. She was Sarabi (France, 2007–2010) and Nala (Basel, London, UK tour and Singapore, 2011–2015). Scar begs for his life, blaming the hyenas for everything. The three of them catch up with him in the Pride Lands, where he witnesses the ruin of his home.
