North will make her Bowl debut alongside the other two additions announced on Wednesday (May 8), Tony- and Grammy Award-winning Broadway star Heather Headley and Grammy-winning Lebo M.

The trio join the already announced cast members and Lion King franchise originals Billy Eichner, Bradley Gibson, Ernie Sabella, Jason Weaver, Jeremy Irons and Nathan Lane as well as special guest Jennifer Hudson.
