about the show

Julie Taymor's adaptation of Disney's beloved animated film THE LION KING is a theatrical event you will never forget.

Set against the majesty of the Serengeti Plains to the evocative rhythms of Africa, this spectacular production explodes with glorious colours, stunning effects and enchanting music to tell the timeless story of Simba and his epic journey to fulfil his destiny as King of the Pridelands.

During its thirteenth record-breaking year at the historic Lyceum theatre in London, Disney's award-winning musical THE LION KING will also visit theatres around the United Kingdom.

Productions also continue to run in theatres across four continents.
