Anyone Seen The Lion King?

[RabbitsRock]

Hoping to have a mini break in London in August, including a musical. If you’ve seen The Lion King, would you recommend it?

I took DD to see it years ago. We both loved it.

It's fantastic, stage design, costume and lighting so great and songs live very powerful.

I loved it. The story and songs were good but it.was the puppetry that amazed me. Its sort of Disneyesque.

It's very marmite though. I know a lot of people who didn't rate it at all and the non discounted prices for shows are eye-watering now.

Yes took my 9yo son to see it in January he loved it as did I and DH

Saw it years ago at the Lyceum and loved it. Went last year in Edinburgh and it was rubbish. That could just be me though. With young children it’s fantastic as an adult not so much.

I loved it.

However, three Lion King is always around. If you want something amazing and less easy to see them go see Hades Town.

I laughed, cried and wanted to dance! I went last November. It's a wonderful show.

Seen it twice and it’s not for me. Matilda is fabulous, seeing it for the third time this year!

It was ok, wouldn’t go again.

Loved the beginning then found it tedious . Dcs weren't mad about it either

Seen it twice and both times it was brilliant. Would definitely recommend 🙂

The animals are amazing but after that it’s a long slog to the end. It’s just too long.

Loved it. Go 😍

I've seen it more than once, it's that good.

It's great. I've seen it three times now, both kids loved it too.

Saw it years ago. Wasn't a fan and the thing that stuck with me was a lead actor enunciating so profoundly that his saliva flew everywhere. Felt sorry for others on stage who were in close proximity. It was mesmerising and gross all at the same time.

I loved it and have seen it twice

Anyone?

It’s very Disney and mainstream, so yes if you like that.

Loved it.would happily see it again

Back to The Future Musical is fantastic and much more reasonably priced. Have seen it several times :)

Haven’t seen the Lion Ling as the reviews didn’t seem to justify the price tag.

Yes. It's spectacular. Really wonderful.

Yes I took my dd and went with some friends and we all thought it was amazing

I agree. I've seen both twice. Would see Matilda again, but not fussed about Lion King.

Yes, I cried during the opening song because it was so beautiful and overwhelming. Dh thought it was hilarious as mufasa hadn’t even died yet. I love musicals and lion king is one of my favourites.
