One of the best broadway shows we have seen thus far. Amazing sets with excellent visuals. Definitely worth every review that we have heard and read. A must see for those who are in NY.
I have never seen a play or any production that came close to this level of creativity. The talent: acting, singing, movement, visuals and moving parts were non- pareil. It took me almost 20 years to see it but I'm so pleased I finally did!
The best show I have ever seen, the most amazing vocals & stunning stage design, just breathtaking! A performance not to be missed, it was the highlight of my trip to New York!
The show was extremely beautiful from beginning to end.
My husband and I loved the show. Definitely recommending this show to others.
The staff were very good and entry and exit to the show were very smooth and pleasant.
The show was amazing from start to finish. This was an unforgettable time. The actors were great the theater was great. The experience was one I will remember for the rest of my life. Thank you.
Purchased tix but a family issue came up and could not go
I was very disappointed . This is my 4th and last time seeing The Lion King. I'm assuming the cast were understudy's because the voices and performances weren't good. I found it pretty odd they added a go-go club scene during the "Be Prepared" scene. They also added a scene that was completely random and unaligned with the story. Timon was hanging from a branch that was hanging over a water-fall/river and there were alligators at the bottom snapping at him and then he suddenly falls into the river. Definitely out of place. I'm happy I saw the show prior to this because I would've likely walked out.
Fantastic show. The music, the spectacle, everything about it.
I went to the show with all my family, it included my 3, 5 and 9 year old. They were fascinated the whole time. They clapped, they sing, it was an amazing experience for the whole family.
From walking in to leaving an unbelievably nite and show ,from the program music seats ushers costumes actors etc could go on exceeded what we were expecting will remember the show forever thank you all🍏👍
It was amazing. Best experience ever. First time and I enjoy a lot.
Best show my daughters have never seen. Strongly recommended
A real disappointment. I watched this musical 5 times. The 4 other times were amazing in Paris and London. I wanted To watch it in NYC for the 5th times, what I did...the show is still nice, very well prepared but what a bad prestation from the monkey...bad voice..the monkey representant was much better played in London. What is more the representant of Muphasa still asked for money at the end for donation....the price of the place is very expensive: 127 dollars...it is a shame!
Everything about the show was just amazing and the cast are so talented!
Extraordinary experience!! First Broadway show. Did not disappoint!
It was my 3rd show. The 1st 2 were amazing, the 2nd one was last year and the 1st in 2015. This 3rd show was Average. The young man playing Simba was Average. His singing left alot to be desired. Also, i did not like the couple new songs added to this performance. I was disappointed. I took my new husband to the show become he had always wanted to see it. I didnt express my disappointment to him because i didn't want to mar his experience, but for those of us who had seen it before, it was sub par.
Couldn't ask for any better seats, They were dead center. We all enjoy the show,
It was perfection, a must see performance. If you are able to go see it don’t hesitate!
