I enjoyed the elaborate stage setups the most. It was better than watching a movie. This was our first broadway performance. It was amazing.

Amazing show

Tamim_A, Jul 2023

It’s an excellent show must see… even though we had the seats at the last of the theatre but it was not bad at all…

Great show if you have kids

chuntell_w, Jul 2023

It was a cute show if you had kids. Very juvenile and not at all the elegant Broadway show I have invisioned. Show was ok but could have been shortened by a least 30 minutes. Move the show off Broadway, charge 1/2 the price and it would be worth it!

Magical

The actor who played...

Amy_L, Jun 2023

The actor who played Simba did not have a great singing voice, and actually missed a couple of notes during his performance. During a duet with Nala, her voice was so much better that it made his seem even worse.

Magical experience
