Everything about the show was great! The acting, the stage, lights and sound!! Absolutely amazing!!
It was a wonderful show. The costumes were exquisite in detail. The sets were beautiful. The actors were really in character. The whole experience was awesome.
This show was worth every penny. And buying tickets was easy would go see it again
I am so glad that we chose to see "Lion King" after all its years on Broadway. The opening of the show is incredibly STRONG ... grabs and pulls you in. The costumes an the puppetry are extraordinary. Even the word "extraordinary" does not do justice to the inventiveness and artistry. The many children in the audience were immediately enthralled. In truth, the adults, too, for that matter. I loved the show. LOVED it.
I even though it is a simple story the dancing costumes and music make it very entertaining for both adults and children. It keeps your interest throughout it makes it a very enjoyable Entertainment throughout
Top top top I recommended it and it is for any age.
Beautiful show, great for all ages! Funny, beautiful, so entertaining. One of the best Broadway shows I have seen. Keeps you engaged at all times.
My sister and I have seen DOZENS of plays, but we were THRILLED with the Lion King!!! We had ORCHESTRA SEATS... we were completely blown away with the acting, singing and the skills of the performers! We are ready to see the lion king again!
This was our first Broadway Show and it was amazing.
The show was fantastic, the view was nice. Over all everything was amazing. Would recommend for family.
Great seats, wonderful show. Brilliantly performed by a great cast. A 'must see' experience all round.
Seats were very closed up! This is the best broadway show ever!
My second time going. Wanted to treat my mom and she enjoyed it.
Great costumes and staging! Nala was especially good!
Front the costumes, to the music, to the ambiance, everything was incredible. Awesome job to the cast I’m putting on one of the best shows ever
WE LOOOOOOOOOOVED THE SHOW SOOOOOO MUCH!!!!! We will return for a third time. Thank you to all of the performers, those behind the scenes, the guys up on top playing the drums, etc. YOU ARE ALL INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL AND TALENTED!!!!!
The music, dancing and singing is so fun, moving and beautiful, I even cried a little! Definitely a must see!
Everything was excellent. I liked everything very much. I will recommend the Lion King musical to all my friends
Amazing experience! First time going to a broadway show and the show itself did not disappoint. Very well thought out and they keep up with the times. The only reason I’m giving the show a 4 star review is because of the current adult Simba. Although I’m sure he is a good actor, I felt like he missed the mark on the character. He kept bouncing around and was very “extra”, which made it feel like he should just sit down. All the other actors’ performances were impeccable.
show was great. theater nice. I had balcony seats. visually, the show would have been more enjoyable from eye level seats. being up high ruined some of the presentation. I did not like Rafikki's performance. she did not enunciate the key lines like in the original movie. I found that very disappointing since I loved Robert G's portrayal. my wife could not get past the puppeteer in green behind Timon. I did not find that distracting. we bought the $55 package of a large blanket ,coffee mug ,etc. my wife loves it.
