Disney's The Lion King on Broadway was one of the most spectacular and breathtaking shows I have ever seen. The producers and the director, Julie Taymor, have managed to turn the animated movie into a larger than life stage show. All the famous creatures you'll remember from the film, from giraffes and lions to birds and beasts, everything has been magically transformed into spectacular puppets. The human puppeteers are visible throughout the show, but that does not detract from the amazing spectacle of the Lion King. The Lion King has been on Broadway for 12 years. While it's a hard show to get into, if you plan ahead, finding discount Lion King tickets is a feasible endeavour. Even if you've seen it already, you will want to get Lion King tickets and see it again. The opening of the show, when the animals fill the theater to sing the now well-known song, "Circle of Life," is worth seeing many times. Disney's The Lion King is one of the most recognizable story lines ever created. The young Lion prince, Simba, runs from his home when he is guilt-ridden over the death of his father. His guilt is the result of his uncle Scar who convinces Simba that he is responsible for the death of Mufasa - Simba's father. Scar tried to blame Simba so that he could take over the pride. Not long after leaving the pride Simba runs into Timon and his sidekick Pumbaa. They teach him their life motto: "Hakuna Matata" (it means no worries). If you liked these two loveable characters in the movie, you'll love the way they are portrayed on stage. They are trouble-makers whose antics work to endear the audience to their characters. Try to find some discount the lion king tickets, and make sure to see this show. But order you tickets ahead of time. They are hard to come by, as this is one of Broadway's most popular shows. This is a show for people of all ages. Parents will love bringing their kids to it, and kids will be awed by the spectacle and enrapt by the story. Taymor, the costume designer for this show, has turned Lion King the musical into a wonderful spectacle. Costumes have never been used in such elaborate ways. The show has nearly twice as many puppets as it does actors. And some of the costumes are greater than twenty feet high. It's incredible. Let's not forget the music in the Lion King. While you will recognize almost every song you hear in the musical, there are, for the stage, three new songs added. The music is mixed with more traditional African rhythms. There is even a new composer in the mix. Lebo M. has contributed a bit of real feel to the music, with his rhythmic style scores. It is no wonder The Lion King won the Tony Award for Best New Musical in 1998. Twelve years later, it continues to enchant audiences old and new, young and old. Get your Lion King tickets as soon as you can. Because even if you have seen the movie so many times that you can recite all of its lines, the play will still be an amazing experience.
