Get ready, because The Lion King is springing onto the platform at the Minskoff Theatre on Thursday 21st December 2023! After 21 years on the road, this breathtaking visual spectacle remains on the move throughout North America.
Close to 30 years back, the Disney animated classic amazed fans all over with its heartwarming narrative of perseverance and bravery as it follows Simba's path from his early lion cub years to his progression to the throne as King. Incorporating Swahili and Zulu, this musical remarkably showcases a total of five indigenous African languages, and the cast of performers involved plays a vital role in its accomplishments.
“Given that The Lion King is incredibly infused with rhythms rooted in these [Gambian] traditions, sustaining enthusiasm for the show is easy," reveals Stefan Monssen, a percussionist educated in African techniques.
Variety commends on the musical, describing it as a “new generation of felines” that continues to take over Broadway by storm. In this assessment, it is highlighted that the Walt Disney Company has efficiently positioned itself as a serious and enterprising player in the legitimate theater scene.
In a nutshell, Disney's "The Lion King" stands as a wonder, a theatrical feat that radiates beauty, intelligence, and originality. The live adaptation of the beloved 1994 animated feature surpasses its starting point in almost all dimensions, embracing remarkable visuals and compelling storytelling to the evocative score by Lebo M and the freshly Africanized pop songs composed by Elton John and Tim Rice.
All stage shows are unmissable at the Minskoff Theatre in New York. With advanced acoustics and a grand stage, the establishment in the state delivers the ideal setting for thoroughly immersing in a complete Lion King presentation.
