A lively stage adaptation of the Academy Award-winning 1994 Disney film, The Lion King is the story of a young lion prince living in the flourishing African Pride Lands.

When an unthinkable tragedy, orchestrated by Simba’s wicked uncle, Scar, takes his father’s life, Simba flees the Pride Lands, leaving his loss and the life he knew behind. Eventually companioned by two hilarious and unlikely friends, Simba starts anew. But when weight of responsibility and a desperate plea from the now ravaged Pride Lands come to find the adult prince, Simba must take on a formidable enemy, and fulfill his destiny to be king.

"Creative use of a small space in regards to set and use of cast to infiltrate the audience. Costumes were fantastic- very innovative use of media, material, native art, and people to make the animals come to life. I have seen this musical several times, but this was my first "Broadway" show. It has amazed me every time I've seen it. Absolutely loved it!"

"La historia del rey león, que muchos conocimos en su película de Disney, tiene componentes musicales y mitológicos que para la obra de teatro son hermosamente extraídos y puestos en el contexto de una representación que podría parecer una puesta en escena de alguna tribu de África. Hermosa, emotiva e imperdible "

"it's just the best. its very difficult, when you know the movie, to get past the voices being different - but it was overall so much better than the original movie. there were even a few actor's performances that were just better than the movie (Nala and Rafiki). it was one part ballet, one part musical, and one part puppetry. I'm just really glad we saw it."
