Broadway Songs For Kids
The Lion King Tickets
The Lion King is one of Broadways most incredibly spectacular shows. The play, which is based on the Disney movie of the same name, has been a successfully turned into an on-stage musical. Timon and Pumbaa, and all the other loveable jungle animals have been turned into amazing, full-sized puppets. The puppets are controlled by on-stage actors who wear the giant costumes.
This broadway musical has been running for almost twelve years. Discount Lion King tickets are not hard to find. If you want to see it, the summer is an apt time to go to New York City and see the show. Seen the show already? The Lion King is so good, you may want to see it twice. Just like in the Hamlet-based movie, the play opens with the show-stopping song, Circle of Life.
Everyone knows the tale of the now-famous Disney movie. Simba, the young prince of the Sahara, is convinced by Scar, his uncle, that he is responsible for his own father’s death. Simba is so scarred that he runs away. In reality, Scar wanted to take over the pride. While in hiding, Simba befriends Pumbaa, a warthog, and Timon, a meerkat, who teach him their philosophy of life: “Hakuna Matata” (it means no worries). Pumbaa and Timon are the movie’s most cute and funny creatures, and the stage isn’t much different. Their antics provide great comic relief throughout the show.
If you can get cheap Lion King tickets, definitely go and see it. But order you tickets ahead of time. They are hard to come by, as this is one of Broadway’s most popular shows. This is one show you can take your kids to and know that both they and you will like it. The costumer for the Lion King has turned this simplistic show into an artistic experience of amazing proportions. Her use of costuming and puppetry is revolutionary and ground breaking. The Lion King has a cast of 46 and features more than 100 puppets, some of which are more than 20 feet tall.
You can’t talk about the show, however, without mentioning the amazing score. Featuring most of the familiar songs from the movie, there are three full new songs added to the mix by writers Elton John and Tim Rice. The music is mixed with more traditional African rhythms. The composer Lebo M has contributed emotionally charged rhythmic chants to the show.
The spectacular show won a Tony for best new musical back in 1998. Even today, twelve years after its win, the show is still hard to get into. Even if you’ve seen the movie countless times or even if you’ve seen the show already, The Lion King is an experience you’ll want to repeat more than once.
