Show was spectacular! Amazing costumes, set. It truly was mesmerizing, espcially for my 10-year-old animal-loving niece. But we adults were smiling the whole way through as well. Kudos to all involved, those out front, and those behind the scene. One of the best Broadway shows I've seen, and I am a Broadway geek.
The Lion King did not disappoint. Amazing cast, costumes, singing, puppetry. I would highly recommend it to anyone who loves good theater. Well done!
It was an excellent performance! Great talented cast
Bride really enjoyed the experience and the show was excellent - she would happily go again Only down sides were 1 of the seats front row Mezzanine has a slightly obstructed view - yet you pay full price 2 drinks price for the interval / before are ridiculously expensive
This is a wonderful show. Great for the whole family. Everything from the costumes, the music and the dancing was amazing. And the cast is phenomenal.
This play was everything!!!! Such a must see play! From the singing, acting, wardrobe, to the dancing, I loved it all!!! My husband says he wants to see it again!!
Was a very good presentation. Given that I was planning to go for the last 10 years. My mother ar 73 years enjoyed it which was a litmus test. The stage craft was simply amazing.
The actors did an amazing job of bringing the various animals to life on stage.
It was absolutely beautiful! No words to describe the songs, the scenes and specially the story! Disney’s the Lion King is a Broadway spectacular!
This show was definitely a must see ,I took my mother for her birthday and she even loved it. The cast stuck to the original script and songs. Overall I would recommend all to see including children.
After months of anticipation, this show proved to be phenomenal! We had great seats but honestly I don't think there were any bad seats in the theatre. The detail and showmanship from costumes to performances was fantastic.
The experience was amazing. It was our very first broadway musical EVER, and we got to experience it together as a family, and what made the experience so amazing and surreal was because the show was just breathe taking. I recommend this to anyone, any age, anywhere.
The Lion King Musical was absolutely amazing. I can’t stop telling everyone about it. Wish it wasn’t so expensive so I could go again and again. I got goosebumps multiple times throughout the show and teared up a few times as well. I highly recommend.
I can’t say enough about how awesome this production was! Visually entertaining, amazing vocals, costumes, choreography, and the set design is absolutely beautiful! Worth every penny!
I achieved on thing on my bucketlist with 'Lion King' and it was incredible. It's truely 'the pride of Broadway' I would say. Thank you for your amazing show.
Really enjoyed the show. This was the first time that I have seen a show on Broadway. I wanted to see dramatic sets and staging along with great music. I was very impressed with the whole production.
Hard to beat a Disney musical. Puppets and costumes were fabulous. My family saw Hamilton and Wicked and we thought this show was the best.
My wife and I watched the show from row O and seats 113-114 which were amazing seats. Could clearly see the whole stage and the intricate details of the costumes, the performers and the performance. Singing was spot on and absolutely amazing. The hype is accurate. Truly worth it!
This is the 5th time I have seen this show, this time I took my daughters friend with us from Missouri who has never been to NY, I was so excited for her to see NY & the Lion King is the icing on the cake! The beginning of the show always brings tears to my eyes, my daughter & I have quite a bonding experience over this show & when the animals come down the aisle & Rafiki is singing Circle of Life, fuggedaboudit!!! Rafiki is my favorite & I could listen to her sing all day, every time I have seen this show the actors are incredible. The only downside to this show is the price, I almost had to forgo the show but decided a large payment on my credit card was worth it, but on that note its probably the last time I will see it due to the expense. But thank you cast! It was wonderful!
If three generations ages 9 to 76 can all be happy on a steamy July day in New York then something must be right .Even the sulky teenagers (had to silence phones lol) were awe struck by the performance We had orchestra aisle seats on right side of theatre which were not the most expensive yet excellent when characters come down the aisles and for viewing stage.It was our second time seeing this show and won’t be the last
