"Saw Lion King in the first few months that it opened for my son’s 18th birthday in 1998. Today, we take our granddaughter Julia, age 9. Perfection! Even better the second time around. "

Truly incredible
"We all know the classic movie and this was incredible. My mouth was open for probably most of the show. The opening alone brought tears to my eyes with these incredible performers pouring their heart and soul into their craft. I would see it again just because it was so good. From the costume to the makeup to the music. All efforts made it a lifetime experience to remember. "

Best and only show

My second time around at The Lion King
"Music and singing were outstanding! Staging was gorgeous too. Actors (ALL OF THEM) were inspiring. I’m visually impaired, so entering the seating area and leaving it during intermission were difficult for me, though not impossible. My 11-year old granddaughter had a blast!"

What spectacular costumes
"I absolutely loved the costumes and the choreography in the play. It made you feel as the human actors were real animals. Timon and Pumba were perfect for their roles as well as Zazu and Rafiki. I have seen several Broadway productions and this was the best yet."

The Lion King on Broadway
"I loved it. It was an amazing experience. The only thing I didn’t like was costumes. I was expecting actual costumes on the actors not the little animals on each side. However, I would recommend it to anyone to see. πŸ«ΆπŸ½πŸ‘ŒπŸ½"

A Must See
"The Lion King on Broadway is more than a show. It is an experience. I absolutely LOVED the staging. And how the use of props were used to tell the story. At my big age, I found myself singing loudly to the songs. Definitely a beautiful way to see a cartoon come to life. Sash πŸ’• "
