"What a wonderful production! Unbeknownst to us 70 somethings we went to a matinee not realizing how delighted we would be in the kid watching and their reaction to the play. Every minute was captivating in the unique use of puppetry and set design. Any age will enjoy its wonderment. "

"Although the mic’s were too soft for the first 3 numbers (music louder than voices), the show was excellent. Particular highlights: Nala’s solo and the Mufasa in the sky sequence."

"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 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!!"
