Running since: October 1997
Julie Taymor's inventive retelling of Disney's animated hit took Broadway by storm in 1997, and is still running strong. Puppets and live actors weave a dreamscape of jungle characters as we follow the rise of young Simba to the throne.
Winner of 6 1998 Tony Awards, including Best Musical.

More than 10 years into its Broadway run, this brightly plumed Disney musical comedy is still the destination of choice for most city visitors. Families from Omaha, Oahu, and Oman alike are treated to a production that has won almost universal critical praise for its powerful mixture of theatre traditions from around the world. The plot? A young lion learns to be a king.

It's an odd entertainment that can stir the dreams of both the father and the five year-old, but this strange mix of old-time Broadway showmanship and the Natural History Museum seems to do the trick. A consistent family favorite, it seems set for a very, very long run.

Here's a clip of the show's stunning performance on the 2008 Tony Award broadcast...a celebration of its 10th anniversary on Broadway:



All ages admitted - everyone must have a ticket. Evening performances are recommended for 6 and above. A limited number of booster seats are available at the theatre.
