  • Overdue and Great

    by Pat D on 11/20/19Minskoff Theatre - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    The show was amazing. The concept and costumes everything. I meant to go years ago with my daughter and she wound up going separately and grew up. I went now and I enjoyed every minute of it from the opening scene to the finally. Thank you !!!

  • Best show ever

    by L. on 11/20/19Minskoff Theatre - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    This was an amazing show. I loved the singing, the dancing, and of course the costumes. They really did bring the movie alive. Best birthday gift so far.

  • Lion King: only one disappointment

    by P. n. on 11/19/19Minskoff Theatre - New YorkRating: 4 out of 5

    The staging, costumes and scenery are amazing. Worth price of admission on their own. For Broadway production where one expects the best of the best in talent, I was very disappointed in the quality of some of the singing, particularly, young Simba who was having a very hard time staying in key and hitting notes. Having recently seen Hamilton where the singing was extraordinary, this was a disappointment. But you will have a great time and overall a very enjoyable show especially if you see it with a child.

    The couple next to me spoke during the entire show. They continued chatting and taking photos even after the ushers asked that they not do so. I left 45 minutes into the show, so did the family to my left. Terrible experience

  • Truly Magical Experience

    by Chris B. on 11/14/19Minskoff Theatre - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    We waited 19 years to finally see The Lion King and I can't justify the time, all I can say is life is busy. I will however say it was definitely worth seeing it and if I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't have waited as long.
