ABOUT THE LION KING

Set against the majesty of the Serengeti Plains and to the evocative rhythms of
Africa, Disney's multi-award winning musical will redefine your expectations of
theatre.

Brilliantly reimagined by acclaimed director Julie Taymor, Disney's beloved film
has been transformed into a spectacular theatrical experience that explodes with
glorious colours, stunning effects and enchanting music.

At its heart is the powerful and moving story of Simba - the epic adventure of
his journey from wide-eyed cub to his destined role as King of the Pridelands.

Running time 2h 30m (incl. interval)

Journey across the African plains with Disney’s The Lion King. Book London
Theatre Week The Lion King tickets in London on TodayTix.

Based on the The Lion King Disney movie, this beloved musical follows young lion
cub Simba, a prince and heir to Pride Rock, the land of his father, Mufasa. As
Simba begins to learn what it means to be a King and to lead his people,
Mufasa’s duplicitous brother, Scar, plots to take over the Pridelands. With the
help of a pack of hyenas, Simba must face the world alone, discovering a new way
of life in the jungle with new friends Timon and Pumbaa.

The Lion King musical is a fun-filled stage spectacular. It features music by
Elton John and Tim Rice, incorporating fantastic puppetry to bring the animal
kingdom to life. See gazelles move gracefully across the stage, an elephant take
to the theatre aisles and birds fly across the auditorium! The Lion King London
musical is part of the West End's circle of life, after all.


WHAT TO WATCH FOR:

 * The Lion King isn't just told in English. Songs in The Lion King use six
   different African languages throughout the show, including Zulu, Swahili and
   Xhosa, representing a variety of African nations and communities.
 * Julie Taymor, theatre designer and director, designed the all of the costumes
   and used carbon fibre to create the animal masks. This made them light enough
   for the performers to wear, but strong enough to last a while for a long
   running show.
 * In total, there are 232 puppets used in the The Lion King in London. The
   production showcases 25 different species of animals, birds, fish and
   insects.
 * By far, the largest puppet in the show is the Elephant, given the nickname
   Bertha by the crew. She is 13 foot long and 9 foot wide. It takes four people
   to work together in order to move the puppet across the Lyceum Theatre's
   stage.
