The costumes were fantastic, as were the stage effects.
Please ask the theatre to have quiet wrappers, or just don't sell crisps/loud snacks. People should be able to manage an hour without a snack. It's no fun to have the group behind us CRINKLING AND CRINKLING, especially during the quiet songs.
The show could have been a little louder. We were in the Royal Circle. Sometimes it was a bit hard to hear, especially the lyrics.

Unforgettable Experience!
From the very beginning, I was transported into the heart of the African savanna, with breathtaking costumes, powerful performances, and stunning stage design.
The show was vibrant, emotional, and visually spectacular.
The cast was phenomenal, and the magical music filled the theater with warmth and excitement.
I truly enjoyed the whole performance with the lovely company of dear friend.

I'm from Africa...as soon as the show started and the music began, I was transported back home. So emotional , I cried! Many senior moments throughout...especially when the Tomato sauce song was sung...I remember so many games we made up with that...this is going back 60 years when I was around 13yrs old! Thank you for a very memorable afternoon....the costumes particularly the headgear was excellent....

The show was amazing, the cast was incredible (I adored Scar and Zazu), the Choreography was breathtaking and the venue was gorgeous! My only gripe is that they closed the bar (where all the merch was) after the show, meaning you have to buy any merch you want before the show or in the interval.

Thank you, Headout, for being supportive during the purchase. It's very easy and fast to get tickets and once in the venue all works perfectly well too. The Lion King has been incredibly amazing... all the visuals, the live music, some funny adaptations from the original... I give my 10/10!!!

We loved the show! Although we took the cheapest seats, we had a great view of the stage thanks to the configuration of the room (Italian-style theater). We recommend it 100%!

This was my second time to see "The Lion King" along with my family and we loved every bit of it. My only challenge was I had a tall man come and sit in front of me and i had challenges throughout the show

I really enjoyed The Lion King. The show was very impressive, especially because there were so many "animals" on stage. The costumes and puppetry made it feel like a real African savanna. The music and dancing were also amazing. Unforgettable experience.
