The 30th anniversary of the original animated film version of 'The Lion King' will be celebrated at the Hollywood Bowl next month with a live-to-film concert/screening. The event will feature cast members from both the movie and theatrical versions, including Jeremy Irons, Nathan Lane, Billy Eichner, Ernie Sabella, Jason Weaver, and Bradley Gibson. The shows are scheduled to take place at the Bowl on May 24-25 and will be produced by Disney Concerts, Fulwell 73 Productions, AMP Worldwide, and Live Nation-Hewitt Silva.
The concert, titled 'Disney's The Lion King 30th Anniversary - A Live-to-Film Concert Event,' will showcase a full orchestra performing the Oscar-winning score composed by Hans Zimmer for the 1994 classic, conducted by Sarah Hicks. The cast members will perform the musical numbers written for the film by Elton John and Tim Rice, drawing from the hit Broadway adaptation that began in 1998 and the 2019 movie remake, in addition to the original film.
