Directed by Julie Taymor, Disney's theatrical version of The Lion King has won awards since first opening in 1998, including Tony Award for Best Musical, and numerous others including choreography, puppet design, costume design and sound design. For millions of fans, The Lion King earns the reputation as one of the best musicals in the world.

The African savanna unfolds with fantastically imaginative puppets, masks and costumes on stage for the Disney's The Lion King. The three hour production whisks by with awe-inspiring actors-turned cartoon characters, giraffes on stilts and flying birds. The plot, like the original, features scathing evil versus youthful innocence, while the stage version manages to incorporate more cultural richness and stand-up humor.

Musically, The Lion King is undoubtedly moving. African singers and African music meld seamlessly with the animated film's score, by Tim Rice and Elton John.

Not just for kids, The Lion King has the impeccable acting, heart-stirring score and visual maturity, in addition to compelling takes on the moral challenges of virtue and courage, for all ages.

--John Lahr, The New Yorker
