Excellent performance and overall amazing experience. Booked Grand Circle tickets. Great overall view but lots of steps. There is a lift if you have physical needs for its use, just ask. Ate across the street at Indigo restaurant for a pre-theater treat. Visual effects of the performance are outstanding. Wonderful music, dancers - a real London treat.

Se esiste uno spettacolo capace di toccare le corde più profonde dell'anima fin dal primissimo secondo, questo è senza dubbio The Lion King al Lyceum Theatre. Non si tratta semplicemente di un musical, ma di un’esperienza sensoriale totale che trascina lo spettatore nel cuore pulsante della savana africana. L’inizio è un vero e proprio shock emotivo. Quando le note potenti di Circle of Life risuonano nel teatro è un momento di pura commozione: la maestosità degli elefanti, la grazia delle gazzelle e la potenza dei canti dal vivo creano un'atmosfera così vibrante da far venire i brividi e riempire gli occhi di lacrime per la troppa bellezza. Il cast del West End si conferma di un livello straordinario. Il Lyceum Theatre, con la sua atmosfera storica e la sua acustica impeccabile, si rivela la cornice perfetta per questa produzione monumentale. Visivamente è un capolavoro di colori e luci, dove la drammaticità della storia si unisce a momenti di grande ironia e leggerezza. The Lion King è uno spettacolo emozionante, viscerale e senza tempo. Si esce dal teatro con il cuore colmo di gioia e la netta sensazione di aver assistito a qualcosa di unico. Assolutamente imperdibile!

C'est la 2e fois que je vois cette représentation et elle est toujours aussi mémorable. La première fois, j'étais dans la section "stalls" et la vue était superbe. Nous étions cette fois-ci dans le Grand Circle qui est vraiment en hauteur. La scène était bien visible sans obstruction mais éloignée, évidemment. Le seul bémol est qu'à cette hauteur nous voyions certains changements de décor. Mais nous avons quand même profité du spectacle avec grande attention. Rien à redire sur le jeu d'acteur, autant pour les enfants que pour les adultes. Tous on contribué à rendre cette représentation du Roi Lion merveilleuse. Les chants et danses sont d'une beauté ! Merci pour ce magnifique moment !

The performance was very fresh - surprising to me as the actors must have played it so many times before. I loved the puppet animals - the elephant entering the stalls was a real wow! The music was great, the singing and dancing brilliant. The sound level was very well judged - there were 2 almost manic drummers in the boxes nearest the stage who created and sustained a terrific energy, without the decibels being overwhelming, as they so often are. There were some quieter and very affecting moments too. Altogether a very memorable experience. And I am just the Granny who took the grandchildren!

Met familie de voorstelling bezocht. Het theater was niet zo groot wat het heel gezellig maakte. Het begin van de voorstelling was een kippenvel moment, wij werden terug meegenomen naar het verleden. Mooie kostuums en het zangtalent van de artiesten was fenomenaal! We hebben genoten van begin tot het einde. Zou het iedereen aanraden. Foto's werden niet genomen gezien dit niet mocht tijdens de voorstelling.

From Disney's Oscar-winning film to one of London's longest-running musicals, Disney's The Lion King has been delighting audiences for 27+ years.

Hand-crafted puppets and masks, striking staging, and Elton John's and Tim Rice's score, with songs like "Circle of Life" and "Can You Feel the Love Tonight," bring the Pride Lands to life.

Now in its 27th year, critics call it "simply nothing else like it" (The New York Times). Book your tickets to Disney’s The Lion King in London today!

The story

Set in the African Pride Lands, Disney’s The Lion King in London follows young Simba as he flees after the tragic fall of his father, King Mufasa. Guided by new friends Timon and Pumbaa and haunted by Scar’s shadow, Simba must decide whether to face his destiny and reclaim Pride Rock. Will he rise as king, or let fear rule forever?

A wonderful experience from beginning to end. The Lion King was absolutely amazing: the costumes, the colours, the staging, the music and the energy of the whole cast made it a truly spectacular show. The child actors were fantastic, and the adult cast were outstanding as well. Adult Nala was especially impressive — her voice was beautiful and her performance was truly moving. It is definitely a musical worth seeing in London. We absolutely loved it.

Es war ein hervorragendes Bühnen Bild und es wurde ein sehr sauberes Englisch gesprochen und gesungen. Die Szene, wo Mufasa von den Tieren überrannt wurde war wunderschön und beeindruckend. Es hat uns noch besser gefallen, wie das Musical in Hamburg. Es war ein wunderschöner Nachmittag für uns und unseren beiden Enkeln (12 und 7 Jahre).
