Awesome simply awesome! Securing the tickets to reserving the parking! And the production was spectacular! The look on my baby sister’s face was priceless and worth every penny spent! Also, the bathroom was clean, definitely a plus💕
I’m usually moved to tears by musicals. I was not with this one. I was a bit disappointed.
This is hands down the best show I’ve ever seen. The costumes, the music and the actors were all amazing.
From beginning to end the presentation will leave you mesmerized. The special attention to details will keep you intrigued wondering to yourself, how did they do that...the acting and musical song along with the messaging of courage was heartwarming.
This show is an AMAZING, great family event. This is my 2nd time attending the show and it never ceases to amaze me. The staff is awesome and the actors are on point! LOVE THIS SHOW!!
I have seen the Lion King many times at other theaters. This is the first in NYC. I thought the people who played Timon, Zazu, and Scar were stand-outs!! They played their characters so well. The opening scene was also done very well.
beautiful experience. Broadway production at its best!! What a stage!!!Brought my 7 year old. I believe it is something we will both remember.
It was a birthday gift for my mom and aunt. We all enjoyed the play. The costumes, music, colors were wonderful. All the actors were phenomenal.
Best Show I've seen so far. Everything had my wife and I in awe.....From the costumes, decor, songs, voices, acting.....Everything was well thought out. It was an extraordinary experience that I can't even begin to put into words.
From the moment Lion King started I was captivated! I can't wait to see it again and hope you do too. The costumes, set design, music, dance, acting, singing, lighting, and make up were pure magic!
Great experience in New York Broadway! Visited from the UK... Was an amazing show, would definitely recommend it...
This show was superb! The costumes blew us away and our four-year-old loved being able to sing along (quietly) to the songs she already knew. The sound was excellent and seats in the Mezzanine we still a fantastic view! We will definitely see it again!
This was my daughter’s first Broadway Show. She is two and a half years old. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. I will definitely recommend this show to my friends and family.
Very organized and friendly staff. They had good offers on the merchants
We took our grandsons, ages 7 and 10 and they enjoyed the show, as did we. I did, however, miss "The Morning Report."
Outstanding performance, recommended for everyone!
I have seen the Lion King movie a 1000 times the newest one as well. The live Play was Unbelievable. I was speechless. The cast, the costumes, it was worth every penny. I will definitely take me daughter again. It was a Birthday gift to my mother. She will always remember it. The show was so moving.
1st Broadway show, was a little apprehensive due to price but it was my wife and I anniversary and it was something she wanted to see. It was a great show great performance would definitely do this again. Great experience.
With all the years “Lion King” has been on Broadway, I finally had an opportunity to see it—with my six year-old, who was seeing a Broadway show for the first time. We both thoroughly enjoyed it! Great orchestra seats and overall awesome experience!
This play was beyond amazing. The music the costumes, the puppetry all beyond what you could imagine coming to life on stage. This was my second time seeing this fabulous play. This time I brought my 16 year old grandson with me. He had wanted to see this play forever. OMG he loved it. We had fourth row orchestra seats but the theater does not seem to have a seat that would obstruct the view of the play. Staff pleasant and efficient. Please come and enjoy this play. It is age appropriate for young and old.
