In the performance of Timon's big songs "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" and "Hakuna Matata" (shared with Pumbaa), audiences will also get acquainted with Eichner's musical theater pedigree, a defining, if underused, side of his identity as an artist that he can't wait to reveal. "Nathan Lane has a great singing voice [but] he didn't lean into it fully in the original version of The Lion King," he says. "I lean into a little bit more, and I think that's another way that this version is distinct: Timon's singing voice in this version is different than the original, and I think that adds a different flavor to it. When Timon speaks and when he's quote-unquote 'being funny,' he's very loud and boisterous, but the singing allows this vulnerable side, a slightly softer side, especially in 'Can You Feel the Love Tonight' and other moments. So I was glad that they encouraged me to do that because for me personally, it was pretty major."
