After reading other reviews round the web, I spotted that Lion King the Musical had recieved lots of bad ones, I looked at images and it looked brill, so I decided to go and see for myself. If your considering going then let me tell you, you won’t be let down.
So anyhow I went to the theatre expecting nothing apart from a poor show. But the prejudiced reviews on here were shortly crushed… What a wonderful show.
From the instant the Rafiki starts singing, to the curtains close for the final time. Who’d have thought the Lion King could become a stage show. Each scene is well put together and draws you into the tale. Having seen the film years back, when I used to be a little one, I wondered how some scene’s would be portrayed onto a stage, but the producers of this show have done a positively wonderful job, and I was dumbfounded a number of times at how they’d done this.
Conclusion
The costumes were extraordinary. Some songs were haunting, some songs were funny, all songs were brilliant. I couldn’t fault the performance in any fashion. A must see!
