I'm going to see this in August I'm so excited. It's always been my favorite disney movies and wen I found out there was a musical, which was when I was 9, I immediatly put seeing it on my list of 'Things to do before I die.' I can finally cross that off in August. I can't wait!!
Way beyond just brilliant. The word "inspiration" comes from Latin that (like "respiration," same root) originally literally meant "having the spirit (which itself originally meant literally "wind" or "breath") breathed into" someone -- the "breath" being that of the gods / muses. Julie Taymor is inspired & inspiring in every meaning of the term; her genius is beyond anything merely human. Her creative talents are god-like.
This looks to be the current touring cast that is currently in Indianapolis. Excellent cast: Scar, Mufasa, Timon Pumbaa and Zazu. Rafiki really shines in later songs where she can go higher in her vocal range, she was spectacular.
Julie Taymore (the director of Across the Universe) was one of the main people behind the puppeteering of the show in the original....at least from what I can remember.
After a second look that doesn't appear to be the touring version of the Lion King. Phindile Mkhize is the touring Rafiki and is excellent, are all the Rafiki's able to do the click talk? Phindle is excellent at that!
Julie Taymor has an unbelievable understanding of the theatre. Her creativity is brilliant. I always get chills watching these clips.
Not only do I think The Lion King is the greatest animated movie, but I think this musical is up in the top, too. Simply amazing and so well done.
this musical is one of my favorites the costumes & make up is amazing!!!
I saw this in Nashville 2005. It was just incredible.. wonderful masterpiece!!!
I don't care what anyone says. The Lion King has the most outstanding performers, puppets and music I have ever seen.
this is freaking beautiful! Pure Genius! so stunned on how amazing this is! i really wish i could see this show!
I saw this on Wed. in NYC it was AMAZING!!!!! Just still in Awe by the whole performance!!
wow.....they're voice give me shivers!!! Incredible

the costumes are all handmade!!!! O0O
I have to say the original cast from what little I have seen of them was the best, especially the one who played Rafiki first.
The best musical in the world
Muito lindo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, if we drive enough other species to extinction, maybe someone can write a song called The Semicircle of Life.....
Why does Simba wriggle so?
@treefire9 Please don't contaminate this masterpiece with that female dog.
Didn't Whoopie Goldberg come onstage dressed as Sebastian singing Under the Sea mere seconds after this?
@holla06 Julie Taymor

Londen cast is better
