There is no doubt why The Lion King remains the top-watched musicals. This season, the show is anticipated to retain its crown as one of the must-see live entertainment! As it takes over the splendid Minskoff Theatre this winter, fans are given a variety of dates to watch the award-winning epic! Whether you’ve seen the Lion King several times in the past or you're witnessing its beauty for the first time, you’re assured to have a marvelous experience seeing one of the world’s greatest musicals thanks to Minskoff Theatre’s state-of-the-art accommodations and top-tier light and sound technology.
The show itself is a whole other level of amazing. Now showing for over twenty years, The Lion King remains unparalleled in terms of scenic design, music, costume, and overall presentation. With six Tony Awards and eight Drama Desk Awards under its helm, there is no question that the Lion King’s performance at the Minskoff Theatre this February will be packed.
Variety’s 10/10 rating for The Lion King’s Broadway production says it all. “A new breed of cats just dominated Broadway. Easily said, Julie Taymor's staging of Disney's "The Lion King" is a masterpiece, a theatrical achievement unrivaled in its beauty, brains, and ingenuity. Jumping far beyond its celluloid inspiration, the stage version advances upon nearly every aspect of the hit 1994 animated movie, from eye-catching artistry and storytelling to Lebo M's score and the newly Africanized pop songs of Elton John and Tim Rice.”
Meanwhile, Entertainment Weekly correctly called this musical “King of the Hill.” The critique also ensures that no matter what version of the musical you experience – be it Broadway or touring – the show definitely deserves to be cherished and appreciated, “Amazing vision overrides any quibbles. The Lion King can make you fall in love with theater, no matter what theater it's in.”
Lastly, the New York Times was fast to mention the musical’s “breathtaking beauty and scenic ingenuity.” The critic noted, “Without a doubt, nowhere before on Broadway has a stampede of wildebeests or a herd of veldt-skimming gazelles been rendered with such eye-popping conviction. But in many ways, Ms. Taymor's vision, which is largely rooted in ritual forms of theater from Asia and Africa, collides with that of Disney, where visual spectacle is harnessed in the service of heartwarming storytelling.”
With an almost perfect rating on Broadway World, the Lion King is undoubtedly a beloved among Broadway critics. So, it would be absurd if you missed The Lion King musical at the Minskoff Theatre this winter! So be sure to catch the show on Friday 16th February 2024 as it electrifies the stage with its award-winning production! Get your tickets now by clicking on the Book Tickets link!
