The Lion King has been playing at the Kennedy Center, so Mac’s parents got tickets for a show a few nights after he came home. We wound up with box seats near the middle of the theater. Thanks for the seats we never would’ve paid for ourselves.
If y’all ever have the opportunity to see this show, do it. It was beyond amazing. The costumes and staging are breathtaking, and the music is so powerful live. I might’ve teared up a bit during “The Circle of Life.”

For those of you who have seen the movie, the musical follows the original plot. They did add a few songs and tweaked some of the scenes, but 98% of the content is the same. The Lion King is playing at the Kennedy Center through August 17ish. See it while you can!
Have y’all seen The Lion King? Did you enjoy it?
I saw the Lion King here in Toronto a few years back and loved it! I love going to the theater. Have you seen Phantom of the Opera? That one was amazing!
How fun! We saw it in 2004. It was great! I am so glad we went.
I’ve seen it in Philadelphia and in London. Far and away one of my favorites!
I have always wanted to see this!
So jealous. This is one musical I’ve been dying to see!
Saw this in KC with my family because my sister was OBSESSED growing up.. such a great play!
I soooo want to see this! It just never has been near where I am. I am glad you enjoyed it!
