Wow, Myrna is now originating the role of "Chiku the Monkey" in the New Babar TV Series!

Well, it looks like Babar is all grown up and has a son named Babu. And a monkey friend named Chiku! How do I know this? Well my daughter Myrna was cast as the voice of Chiku in The New Babar, a new computer animated series based on the Babar franchise.

At the recording of the first couple of episodes we met the other kids which was fun for Myrna.

But I got a kick out of seeing all the adult actors who were involved playing the older characters (Queen Celeste, Cornelius, etc). I instantly recognized them by either face or voice! Renowned actors like Lynne Cormack, Chris Wiggins, Colin Fox, and Len Carlson to name drop a few. Wow, what a great learning experience for Myrna!
