There are few films more iconic than the Lion King and the epic theatre production is just as legendary. After last taking the city by storm in 2019, the hit show is back at the Bristol Hippodrome once again and better than ever before - as Mark Taylor's review highlights.
As the sixth longest-running West End musical of all time after its UK premiere in London on October 19, 1999, Disney's The Lion King has been seen by over 16 million theatregoers and remains the best-selling musical in London.
Being one of the most-loved Disney films, the live show still manages to take on a new lease of life, featuring extensive experience staging, epic theatre and opera productions whilst also exploring classic myths through ritualised puppetry, mask, and movement.
