The Lion King Theater Show

London, United Kingdom

The Academy-award winning Disney film 'The Lion King', is brought to life in spectacular fashion in London's West End! Disney's phenomenally successful 1994 animated feature has been transformed into a spectacular stage musical with outstanding music and lyrics by Tim Rice and Elton John.

'The Lion King' is the popular story of the young lion cub Simba, as he struggles to accept the responsibilities of adulthood and his destined role as king.

Set against the majesty of the Serengeti Plains and to the evocative rhythms of Africa, Disney's multi-award winning musical 'The Lion King' will redefine your expectations of theater.

A spectacular visual feast, this adaptation of Disney's much-loved film transports audiences to a dazzling world that explodes with glorious colours, stunning effects and enchanting music. At its heart is the powerful and moving story of Simba - the epic adventure of his journey from wide-eyed cub to King of the Pridelands!

You have the choice of two seating options for the performance. Standard priced seats offer a good view of the stage and are usually located in the rear stalls or dress circle. Alternatively, opt for top priced seating and enjoy a full view of the stage and get closer to the stars!

Why not make the most of a memorable evening and enjoy a 2-course pre-show dinner at Salieri's? A well-known pre-theater restuarant situated close to Aldwych Theater, Sailieri's combines classic British cuisine with a compelling interior featuring puppets, mirrors, masks and theatrical memorabilia. Sample menus can be viewed in the itinerary section (below).

Theatre was too noisy, warm, too many school kids, not worth the price paid for.

From the booking in Canada to arriving at the theatre to the ease of picking up tickets the experience was wonderful. Couldn't have been easier.

Would like to have had more choice in location of seats sat in balcony and would have paid more to sit on floor. But still LOVED the show and convenience of having tickets purchased ahead of time.

"Skip the line" was great at the Lyceum Theater too. We had the best seats in the house middle of first row!

This was excellent and easy to do - the tickets were waiting for us at the box office.

The Lion King was amazing and the cast is extremely attractive! I was astonished at the costumery and the lighting. The food at Christopher's was very good, however, you only get 2 courses from preposted theater dinner menu. Dessert is offered a la carte but you can't order the same dessert from the theater menu, but no big deal. The dinner and the show were great. The seats were simply amazing, right smack dab in the center and not too close and not too far back. The premium package ticket with dinner sold at Viator was about 30 less had I booked everything individually.

The show was fantastic! It's definitely worth seeing, though I didn't like our seats for the price we paid. It would have been better if we had just gone to the theater and bought our tickets, then we could pick out the seating beforehand.

This is definitely my favorite of all shows. I love the costumes and music, and the singers were fantastic, particularly Simba and Nala. Be prepared to cry though...alot!
