On May 6th, 2027, at an undisclosed venue in London’s West End, the tale of The Lion King will unfold with over forty actors, singers, and dancers expertly utilizing masks, puppets, and striking costumes to transport audiences into a world as majestic and dramatic as the story itself.
With a cast of over 40 actors, singers and dancers, the story of The Lion King is miraculously brought to life in London's West End using masks, puppets and striking costumes to tell the story of young Simba's epic adventures as he struggles to accept the responsibilities of adulthood and becoming king.
The stunning simplicity of The Lion King is the work of a team of designers who draw on diverse cultural influences to recreate the rich colours and vast expanses of the African savanna in this daring and inspiring reinvention of one of the most successful animated films of all time.
The Lion King is recommended for a general audience. As an advisory to adults who might bring young people, Disney recommends The Lion King for ages 6 and up. Children under the age of 3 will not be admitted into the theatre. All persons entering the theatre, regardless of age, must have a ticket. So if you want to see this amazing show, then get your tickets to see Disney's The Lion King right here!
