    Lion King

    by Eve on 4/16/19Minskoff Theatre - New York

    What an amazing show. Couldn’t even blink my eyes because I’m afraid I’ll miss something. Costumes were so colorful and the actors were able to depict the story real good. Singing and music was phenomenal.

    Overrated Show

    by f. s. on 4/13/19Minskoff Theatre - New York

    I am no expert but I have attended many musicals, and this is definitely overrated. Adult Simba’s singing was a bit sloppy, it seemed to me out of tune at times. The transitions between acts were not smooth to me. I had been waiting for a long time to see the show, I regret I did not buy another show’s ticket instead.

    The tickets were very easy to buy (the day before) on Ticketmaster. I love the digital tickets, nothing to lose or fumble to enter. The staff was helpful and friendly. The show was breathtaking and I can't wait for the movie this summer.

    The Lion King - Sunday, April 7

    by Georgygirl on 4/10/19Minskoff Theatre - New York

    This show was truly remarkable! We are frequent Broadway show attendees who have seen many fabulous and some not-so fabulous shows over the years. The Lion King had everything and more- incredible artistry, truly spectacular visuals, a multi-talented cast, and most importantly, a story for the ages. A story of love, faith, tradition and strength. Our 8 year-old granddaughter was mesmerized and transformed watching all of the interactions between the characters and loved the animals running down the aisle. We have taken her every year for the last 4 years to a show and this one was the best BY FAR. Hope many more people, young and old, get to experience the wonder and joy of The Lion King!

    Best African live experience

    by Niceeyez on 4/10/19Minskoff Theatre - New York

    This was the first Broadway show my son and i ever seen. It was all because of my son. He loved it, i loved it. The songs, the animal and the actors/actress was owesome. The show has a lot of jokes off and on. I was concern about my sitting. But i pick the best seat not expensive not cheap, just right. Thanks again for a magical time 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤❤❤❤👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

    Good; Not the Best

    by Robert on 4/9/19Minskoff Theatre - New York

    Costumes were amazing. Story was a bit weak - if I had not seen the film I may not have understood the story line as well; seemed to be missing some connections. Also, the actor who played the older Simba was weak. He was whiny and never really showed any strength or confidence; even at the end after he became king.

    Most Amazing show ever

    by Mi Familia on 4/7/19Minskoff Theatre - New York

    My family and I flew in from Atlanta to see Lion King on Broadway. My kids were thoroughly entertained including the teenager, who's not easily impressed by much (unless her friends are involved). We had great seats. Row F, first 5 seats near the aisle, which was amazing because the cast would parade down the aisle. Costuming and the performance were amazing.

    The Best Broadway Experience

    by PS100TEACHER on 4/7/19Minskoff Theatre - New York

    Take your mind on a journey from the pages of a book to a beautiful stage production. The singing, costumes and scenery was a perfect compliment on this visual journey. I must see it again with a friend that needs to step outside of their limited existence.
