Character Discussion: ScarI discovered a great interview with Patrick Page ( http://www.broadwayworld.com/videoplay.cfm?colid=23607 ) that basically centers on his work on the Grinch musical, but he also talks about his roles as Lumiere and Scar. If you choose to view this video, you'll hear him say something about Scar that I thought was very interesting. In the interview, Page says that he considers Scar to be not only smarter than Mufasa, but that Scar has a better sense of humor. Do you think that these are just his opinions or that to make Scar wittier and smarter were conscious decisions of the librettists of the TLK stage show?

I don't see how he's made wittier and smarter in the musical. In the film it's already very obvious that Scar is the wittier one of the two brothers. And, though this may be personal, I do think that he is funnier. Wicked, but funnier.

At times I feel sorry for Scar. I think he was very, very unhappy.
