The Lion King (New York, NY) Tickets

At first I was hesitant to see a Disney production on Broadway with all the other choices but am I ever glad we did!! My husband , 17 yo, and 15 yo loved it as well. Of course we were all familiar with the Lion King story, but the costume design and choreography was spectacular, not cheesy. They music and movement was perfect. The animals were so majestic and elegant. Of course Timon and Pumba were hilarious, as well as Zazu. Rafiki almost stole the show for me. I couldn't get enough. We were sad that it ended. I would go see this over and over,

Wow! What a show! Everithing about it was great! It made me laugh, it made me cry, it gave me goosebumps!!! Ingenious costumes and accessories. Lighting was brilliant! My kids (8 and 9) were as thrilled as I was and so were the grand-parents! Awsome for the whole familly!

The costumes and music were amazing! We especially liked young simba. He was amazing!

Seeing the Lion King on Broadway was a very special moment for me - it was the first time my 8 year old daughter had experienced a live show, and this was a perfect introduction for her into the world of theatre! On my part, a lot of thought went into selecting just the right show for her to see - I wanted the show to capture her imagination on many different levels, and it did. The costumes, the set production, the actors/dancers, and the music, all of it, just took your breath away. At the end of the performance, the audience gave a well deserved standing ovation - which I'm sure they must receive at the end of practically all of their performances. I was literally wiping tears away! My daughter and I LOVED the show and I'm so happy that she (and me) will have this amazing memory.

The translation from movie to musical contained every award winning aspect, and also still impresses with the spectacular costume design. If this allowed me I would have given this show 5 Diamonds as well as starts

Fabulous from start to finish.Enjoyed every second.Disney knows how to tell a story.

The setting, the singing, the acting and the costumes were amazing.

We were traveling to Manhattan from Toronto and wanted to see a musical that would be suitable for my 12 year old niece and my 70 years old mom...and 35 years old me. Also, while my niece and I can speak English, my mom can't. Hmmmm......which musical will entertain all of us??? My husband had already seen the lion king and he recommended. And he was right! It was FANTASTIC!!! My mom who couldn't speak English could follow the story with excitement and I'd become the favorite aunt from my niece. I would definitely recommend the lion king to any family from any where!!!

The Lion King was great. It really made the story come alive.

We loved the Lion King in New York City. We had seen it previously in Toronto, and were amazed then, but this was even better. The Lion King is a definite must see in NYC.

The Lion King in NYC was incredible. One of the very best musicals we have attended. We took our 15yr. old grandson who to say the least was a bit apprehensive. He loved it! In his words: "Wow !!! I would have never expected that. It was totally awesome. I would like to see it again. I would want my friends to see it" The cast was so talented, the band out of this world. Our hats off to everyone who made this production. We wished that we lived closer. It brought tears to my wife and mine eye's and we think a lump in our grandson's throat at times. We can't say enough good about this production. From Calgary, Canada

I can't fault the performers or the sets, but somehow for our family, the Lion King did not blow us away. We had premium tickets and there was nothing wrong with the show. I honestly can't say what it was that made me come away and feel that it was just o.k. I wasn't dazzled or amazed as I expected to be, given the shows reptuation and the price of the tickets. Maybe I was expecting more dancing, maybe I just knew the story line too well from having watched the Disney video of it many times when my children were little or maybe it is just a bit dated. I just don't know. Having said that, the audience loved it and gave them a standing ovation. I left wanting to feel like the rest of the audience felt. We also saw and absolutely loved "9 to 5" and "Wicked".

The Lion King is one of my favorite movies. I own the Disney version of the CD, and the movie. I was not prepared for what I saw on Broadway. I was trying to imagine/predict how they would make certain scenes happen and was AMAZED as to how they did so. The music was fantastic, the costumes were fantastic, the production was FANTASTIC!!! The front row seats were great. So close to the actors and music. I traveled to New York with a friend who is a wonderful music teacher and has been the musical director for numerous musicals. At the opening scene, she was so taken aback by the quality that she was crying with joy/excitement. It was wonderful. Strongly recommended. I'd like to see it again.

LOVED IT! LOVED IT! LOVED IT! The Lion King on Broadway was the best I'd ever seen. The characters, the colours, the singing, were all so wonderful. The actor that played Scar was absolutely awesome, he was one of my favorite characters. I never wanted it to end.

We absolutely loved the spectacle that is LION KING....my family and I were fascinated by the mechanics of the animals and the colourfulness of the whole show. We found the acting to be less than Broadway quality but that did not take away from our enjoyment. We are slightly prejudiced as we attend lots of Broadway events so have standards to compare with. All in all though, it was a wonderful experience and I would definitely recommend it to families with young children.

I became emotional when the show started, because it was so powerful. The animals were awesome, the voices were outstanding, the whole production was absolutly flawless. I won't say any more, I don't want to spoil the impact for any one who hasn't seen it.
