American voice actor
This is an American name. The family nameSchon is sometimes transliterated as Schön in German-language text.
Kevin Schon is an American voice actor who is known for his voice-over work in video games, movies and television shows. He is best known as a voice double for Nathan Lane for animated media, most notably as Timon in the Timon & Pumbaa television series and in various other Disney related projects.
Career
Schon's first acting credit was in 1990 when he played Gillan and Gaias in the TurboGrafx CD video game Valis II. Two years later after his debut, he played Frank II and Mirabelle in The Naked Truth and two years after that, he played Daryl O'Melveny in A Kiss Goodnight.
In late 2003, Schon produced More, an autobiographical one-woman show written and performed by Yeardley Smith at the Union Square Theatre in New York City. It was critically acclaimed, but financially unsuccessful.
Schon was co-producer of Bat Boy: The Musical in the United Kingdom, first in a limited run in Leeds, then in a full-scale West End production at the Shaftesbury Theatre in London. Even though most press reviews were scathing, one notable exception - The Evening Standard - took up the cause for what became a groundbreaking cult classic which is now one of the most often-produced musicals in America. Film director John Landis was brought in to see the West End production and enthusiastically signed on to direct a film version. Though a film screenplay was written by the original authors under the guidance of Mr. Landis, the producers lost the rights to the property, the authors proved recalcitrant, vindictive and uncooperative, and the film remains unproduced.
