Has anybody seen The Lion King at the theatre?

[chaptazbru]

What did you think ?

[EvianBaby]

Yeah, I took my then bf for his (25th) birthday a couple of years ago and we both thought it was amazing! Don't have a bad thing to say, it was just fantastic. GO!!!

[slinky.kate]

heard it was brilliant,thats one of the things i want to see before i die,pity its so far away for me

[LDC134]

yes, and thoroughly recommend it - get tickets in the stalls if you can for a better experience

[chaptazbru]

I am going to see it guys, but not till December!! This is its first time up north and we've been lucky enough to get stall seats (row M). I really can't wait. I've seen excerpts of it on TV and I expect to cry - will I ????

[EvianBaby]

Yeah, think I had a little tear. December is a long time to wait but it's worth it. I want to go again.

[chaptazbru]

It's in my area from December to March, so we got tickets for as early as we could. I'll take plenty of tissues Evian.

I still haven't seen the film, let alone the theatre production...

[chaptazbru]

slinky.kate - Its on tour from August, check it out on Google, as it may be coming to your area.

[Brinjal]

Yes fantastic and the first scene is amazing

[chaptazbru]

Lie-in King - you should definitely see it with your name !!

[chelle7272]

Was interested until my MIL told me tickets are £82 each!

Is it worth it?

[EvianBaby]

Can't remember how much I paid for the tickets but yes, it's worth it.

If you look on Lastminute.com you can often get deals for theatre/meal/hotel, it might be worth having a look at those prices.

[chaptazbru]

chelle - our tickets were £55 each and as I've already said we're in row M in the stalls, the dearest tickets were £75 at the front of the stalls - wonder why the prices vary so much ...
To be honest, I think it's worth it, but then I love the theatre!

[Infomaniac]

It really does depend on your personal taste. You might love it or hate it. I went to see the stage version because some friends of mine wanted to go, and I fell asleep within the first five minutes. Hated it! But that doesn't mean you will.

[whiskeryron]

Saw the theatre version in London some years ago, absolutely brilliant & yes you will shed a little tear.

[chaptazbru]

Thanks W Ron, I'm REALLY looking forward to it ....
