PORTSMOUTH — The upcoming production of “The Lion King Jr.” musical at Portsmouth Middle School will have some strong representation from the Lehane family.

Three sisters are involved in the show:

• Mary, who attends Stonehill College, is doing the marketing for the production and is co-directing.

• Kerry is the musical director for the show, which she’s doing as her senior project at Portsmouth High School. (She played the lead in “The Little Mermaid” years back, with Mary directing the show as her senior project as well.)

• Meghan is one of the stars of the show, playing the part of Rafiki.

“The Lion King” will be staged at Portsmouth Middle School at 6 p.m. on Thursday and Friday, March 30-31.
