THE LION KING premiered on Broadway in 1997 and has since become the third-longest-running musical on Broadway and the first to hit the $1 billion mark at the box office. The North American tour is an equally grand theatrical achievement, having welcomed over 20 million theatergoers in more than 80 cities.The six-time Tony Award-winning production features direction by Julie Taymor, music and lyrics by Elton John and Tim Rice, and choreography by Garth Fagan. For over two decades, the touring production’s visual tapestry has enchanted audiences across North America and continues to be a “must-see” live event, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.

What an amazing experience! I Absolutely loved the show!
Great experience. Would have enjoyed an orchestra rather than a recording. Talented cast.
I’m not a theater guy by nature but this transformed me. The history of Lion King holds dear to me as it reminds me of family. The choreography is awesome. The cast members are talented beyond belief. The live drumming gives the performance legitimacy & adds to the experience. Go Bills!
I took my kids to see “The Lion King” and this show was amazing. From the actors to the choreography, it was a great night and I would definitely go see this show again.
This was one of the most beautiful shows I have ever witnessed in my life. I experienced it as a child and was blown away at the performance yet again as an adult. If you have yet to see this, I encourage you to GO! My younger self has never been happier than in that moment. And a tidbit for those who love a full-blown experience, choose the seating around center stage. You won’t regret it!
Overall the best play I’ve seen since a child! I don’t go to plays often but this one had a great pull on me and I couldn’t pass it up, definitely exceeded my expectations and I’d see it a thousand times again if I could the cast was amazing !!!! Outstanding 🥹🩷
The costumes and stage scenery were fantastic-singing a treat and overall awesomeness!!!
Show was SO SO great. Theater itself was PACKED, small, and not enough bathrooms. Could barely move through lobby. Will not see a show there again.
The Lion King was a show for all ages ! The singing and acting was phenomenal! I wish I would have taken my grandsons ! Great actors … such passion !! Loved it !!
Amazing so happy I didn't let it pass me by this time
