Disney film is “King” on the stage

Forget everything you know about Disney’s “The Lion King.”

On second thought, don’t…. Forget everything you know about Disney’s “The Lion King.”

On second thought, don’t. Remember everything you know because it’s all here in the stage version of the movie – and it’s so much more than you ever imagined when you were 10. As the baboon Rafiki belts the opening lines of “The Circle of Life” with two rams accompanying her from the balconies, and rhinos and elephants come marching down the aisles onto the stage, you immediately realize that nothing could have prepared you for this.

The Lion King Benedum Center Runs through Feb. 17 Directed by Julie Taymor 412-456-666
