Tampa.....to home






























































Spending the final two weeks in Tampa was amazing. We were so fortunate to be able to share it with soooooo many loved ones. The family surrounding us and sharing the final shows just made it all so much more worthwhile to Chris. Grandma Baby (Christopher's Great-grandma) was so proud that she was witness to seeing her baby up on stage. Vicky and 23 other family members came to the show.....and we had a great time. I am personally so blessed that my friends and family surround us with sooooo much love. Titi Ena and Uncle O came....Alissa and family....and the girls (Cynthia, Nadia, Jessica and Alissa again). So great!!!!
Thank you all.
Saying goodbye to the cast and preparing to come home was not easy for Chris. As much as he cant wait to get home to dad and Alexi and everyone else........this was an amazing experience and the end of the tour was bittersweet. He was thrilled to find out that he would be returning at the end of August for two weeks to cover for his replacement. We will be visiting Columbus, Ohio from 08/26 to 09/07.
You can see from the pictures many tears were shed....many friendships were developed and many relationships were strengthened in this experience.
Please know that words cannot express what your support meant to us.....xoxoxoxox
We will keep you posted on all the new opportunities that come up for Christopher.

The show was Spectacular and my Grand nephew was the Best of the Best!

Christopher your dancing, singing and acting were beyond eloquence.
Extremely proud doesn’t express enough how I feel about you.
It was a grandeur experience, watching you perform stimulated so many emotions like: laughter, because your expressions were so funny; delightful amazement at the way you articulated story lines, facial expressions, gestures and the body language of your life as a young cub; and the emotions that you carried throughout the entire show across the stage overwhelmed me with tears of joy. As we exited out, walking through the corridor of the Tampa’s Performance Art Center, I heard people praising your talent, they were all in awe of you at the way you transformed into little Simba, embracing and capturing the attention of the entire audience with your passion and charisma.

Bravo, Bravo, Bravisimo!

And, as if that were not enough, you demonstrated tremendous growth as a young man by conducting yourself as gentleman throughout the whole weekend, being; considerate of our feelings even though you were still busy with your work for the show. You were kind and showed great gratitude for the presence of your family with your mannerisms and love.

Thank you for the super entertainment and for the love that you gave as all.
May God, always continue to bless you and your family

Sincerely loving you always,

Titi Lisa
and Uncle David
