A stunning and outstanding visual spectacle
"There was so much hard work, effort and care put into this production. There is a reason it has been running for almost 30 years. It is sold out time and time again and it shows. I feel it is very much worth the price of admission. "

Truly Incredible
"I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We had an aisle seat allowing for my daughter to be right next to the ensemble entering the theater, which was a nice surprise as I didn’t know this about the performance. I highly recommend that seating option, especially for children. Otherwise the performance was captivating, the costumes were stunningly beautiful, and the orchestra was outstanding. A timeless show for any age! "

Extremely creative
"We recently saw Lion King on Broadway and were blown away by the colorful, creative and over the top costumes. Loved the staging and interactive mingling of characters with the audience.
