    by C. C. on 8/13/19Minskoff Theatre - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    Extraordinary characterization, wonderful musical numbers and scenarios.

  • Great tribute to the movie with a slight spin

    by Peridots13 on 8/13/19Minskoff Theatre - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    Very similar to the original movie, but with a couple of added songs. Growing up in the 90s, I absolutely loved the movie, and loved most of the tweaks the musical had. I did think the hyena song was a bit weird and not quite fitting into the rest of the music, but it was sung and danced fantastically. The cast was talented and great performers.

  • Amazing show and wonderful booking experience

    by Matt V on 8/13/19Minskoff Theatre - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    Delightful show that was the highlight of a weekend getaway trip for 6 friends. The ticketing process from seat selection to booking to receipt of tickets was very easy. The electronic tickets, presented on the mobile phone at the Minskoff theater, was very simple with absolutely no issues whatsoever. This really made the evening that much better and I would highly recommend. Eager to use TicketMaster again for future events.

  • Magnificent show

    by Divya on 8/11/19Minskoff Theatre - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    Such an incredible show. You almost feel like a kid again sitting in the audience watching the show. It is beautifully staged. Loved how they brought the Lion Kind movie to life! The cast and crew did a fantastic job of recreating the movie we all know and love. You will definitely get your money’s worth with this show.

  • I was not impressed by the quality of the ensemble dancers.

    by NYC Tourist on 8/10/19Minskoff Theatre - New YorkRating: 3 out of 5

    These dancers were sloppy and not in synch. At times it looked more like they were marking the dances rather than dancing full out. The children’s parts were also not the quality I would expect from a Broadways show.
