The singers were exceptional. The scenery beautiful. At the end we finished the handkerchiefs. The theatre atmosphere is really unique and a fantastic experience that we plan to repeat.

We saw The Lion King in London’s West End and it was honestly such a special experience. When “Circle of Life” started and the performers came down the aisles, the whole theatre went completely quiet – it gave me goosebumps. The stage feels a bit more intimate, but that actually makes everything feel closer and more immersive. The costumes are incredible and so detailed, and the music sounds even more powerful live. Watching it with my daughter made it even better – she was completely absorbed the entire time. Definitely one of those shows you walk out of still thinking about.

The Lion King show was simply majestic. The sets are absolutely stunning, breathtakingly beautiful, and the costumes are incredibly impressive. The songs and dances are captivating from beginning to end. You don’t want to miss a single moment — you’re almost afraid to blink in case you miss something on stage. It was pure magic. I already can’t wait to go back, because one thing is certain: I will definitely see it again!
