Not much I can really say, this was are first ever show and it didn’t disappoint I could of happily stayed and watched it again.
The show was absolutely amazing from the beginning to the end. #Lovedit!!
The whole event was magical! Really made our trip to New York! We had chills all the way through!
This was the BEST!! Great choreography, costumes, acting, I could go on and on! It is a definite MUST SEE.
unique and fantastic experience, wonderful places, in an inimitable location !!
From the theater to the Cast to the whole experience it was awesome and would do it again.
I took my two daughters to NY for their birthdays and we went to see The Lion King on Broadway! I must say, it was more than I expected. The seats were excellent (we sat on row S in the Orchestra section)! I honestly don’t think there is a bad seat in the theater. This show is very detailed and depicted the movie perfectly. The performers did an excellent job. Great singing throughout and humorous moments kept the audience entertained. I definitely recommend attending The Lion King and would gladly see it again if I visit NY again.
Best show ever! I’ve loved lion king since a child and this show just brung it to life! Definitely worth every penny.
A must see. An amazing family show that will leave you waiting more. It makes me want to visit all the animals in their natural habitat even more. Spectacular show.
We live the show, it was one of the best that we see ... we off course recommending for everybody who go to New York
I have seen so many broadway plays but this was something else. The way they portrayed the animals and scenes was insane. Also recommend sitting in the orchestra on the isle because they come through that way.
The musical was amazing! It was simply breathtaking, seeing all of the costumes and seeing the actors bring these character to life.
This show gets better each time. Greatest show pn Broadway.
I’m absolutely in love with this experience!! All the characters, sounds and especial effects!
This was me and my little sister first time ever going to a broadway and it was so AMAZING! The Broadway alone was beautiful, the staff was super nice and helpful with finding seats . Will definitely be going to more!
Great show, great music and the costumes were out of this world. One of the best plays going
IT was amazing, i even cried when it started with circle of life. You people are sooo talented! Incredible show!!!!!
Seeing it again after almost 20 years at a different theatre. Exquisite! Very happy to see it as fresh and beautiful as I remember it.
Undoubtely one of the most classic Broadway shows ever, I think it has amazing quality in everything, but I may say that I expected more, as I have heard only incredible reviews about it. Second act is too slow that it can get boring.
