  • Incredible

    by Margie on 12/7/22Cadillac Palace - ChicagoRating: 5 out of 5

    Everything about the Lion King was incredible. Performers,costumes,dancing. Music. I liked the Mufasa face in the sky the best. On the bad side lines for drinks and bathroom are really long. Get there extra early to get drinks and bathroom before performance starts. And at intermission.

  • Was amazing, Loved it

    The show was Great, but someone was sitting in our seats and missed some of the show because of it:(

  • Mediocre

    by Sad Lion on 12/6/22Cadillac Palace - ChicagoRating: 3 out of 5

    I thought I would love seeing The Lion King but sadly the venue just wasn’t up to par. Seats too close together- no leg room for tall people and truly terrible acoustics made this experience a D or C- at best. Then to my horror the women’s bathroom of which there are never enough available but the only one in the venue within a suitable walking distance was closed and women were forced to retreat to the basement! What kind of madness is that? I will think twice as long and diligently before purchasing anymore tickets that would have me visit the Cadillac Palace.

  • Maybe worth it if you go with kids?

    by PM on 12/6/22Cadillac Palace - ChicagoRating: 2 out of 5

    The puppetry was kind of neat, but not worth the money. Everything else about the show was lackluster. Low energy performances and several dance numbers just fell apart. Gave it two stars because I could see it being a fun show for kids. But I was expecting something that would be good for both kids and adult theatre fans.

  • Date Night fun!

    by Chicago Shane on 12/6/22Cadillac Palace - ChicagoRating: 5 out of 5

    Great seats, great staff, refreshing experience. The talent was obvious, the costumes were stunning and whether you brought kids or just let the kid in you out it was unforgettable~ I bought my tickets early for her birthday back in July. The gesture lost no luster...she was all smiles the whole time!

  • The show was amazing

    The show experience was just amazing visually. And the African music was a great cultural experience

  • Fantastic!!

    I saw The Lion King about 20 years ago at the same theater. It was magical then, and it's still magical!! One of the best shows I have seen!! It appeals to all and for 2+ hours everyone is on one accord!!

  • Amazing show!

    by Grammy on 12/6/22Cadillac Palace - ChicagoRating: 5 out of 5

    Worth the extra money to sit on the main floor. If you can, try to get an aisle seat. I took my 6 yr old granddaughter and we both loved every minute. So much amazing talent.

  • Fantastic!

    We spent the night in Chicago for my daughters 18th bday & went to the show. I was beyond impressed with the talent this show offers. I’ve seen several Broadway shows & this one definitely ranks up there

  • Amazing

    by Mandy on 12/5/22Cadillac Palace - ChicagoRating: 5 out of 5

    I’ve seen a lot of plays in my life but Lion King is now in the top 3 for me. I’ve always wanted to see it, one because I’ve heard a lot of great things about it, and two, I’m a huge Disney fan. I’ve seen Disney’s other plays and they are always great to see, but Lion King is absolutely incredible and I strongly urge anyone who hasn’t seen it to do so. It’s beautiful, fun and of course, the music and singing is amazing. The actors were some of the best I’ve ever seen and really brought one of my favorite Disney movies to life in a whole new way. I actually teared up in the beginning and had a few more emotional moments throughout, along with lots of laughter and joy. If you haven’t seen it yet, please please do so, you will not regret it!
