Overwhelmingly beautiful, never a dull moment.
"When world-class actors, musicians, dancers, designers, and techs get together and create art, it is bound to move you to your core. I was a kid when Lion King came out and it had always been my dream to watch in on Broadway. I had to wait until I was 37 years old, but boy was it worth it. There was not a single dull moment in the show. The casting was perfect and each actor had such a distinct personality that it was hard to pick a favorite. The visuals were stunning with clever set changes and creative use of lighting and backdrops that made it seem like you were watching magic happen before your eyes. The sound quality was incredible (kudos to the sound engineers) and the orchestra was as polished as can be. I laughed. I cried. I gasped in awe. I will never forget this experience. THANK YOU. "

The Lion King
"The Lion King exceeded our expectations! The stage was the perfect size, and how they moved the props around was amazing. It would have been nice to have some audience interaction, but that is the only thing negative to say. Everything was perfect!!"

Lion King
"That show is legendary for its stunning visuals and creativity. The way they bring the animals to life with puppetry and costumes is just breathtaking. The direction and design work really transformed the stage into something magical. The hyenas are such a wild mix of comedy, chaos, and menace — they totally steal scenes with their energy."

Amazing costumes and actors
"The beginning of the show is a can't miss moment. We met the young actors of Simba and Nala and it was really interesting to hear about the process they went through to get here. And the actor of young Simba is from my area. Costumes were great, acting was superb. My favorite character was Scar, the actor sounded just like Jeremy Irons. Thank you for a memorable first time on Broadway!"
