The Lion King

Here is why we at Broadway Inbound think it's a perfect show for groups:

Welcome to the Pride! Join the young lion cub Simba as he embarks on a journey of self-discovery after the devastating loss of his father, Mufasa, at the paws of his villainous uncle Scar, who aims to steal the kingdom. Transforming from a cocky, reckless young boy to a brave and wise ruler, Simba must battle his own guilt as well as his ruthless enemies. The Lion King provides a thrilling and moving theatrical experience, under the careful direction of Julie Taymor, that's perfect for group events and suitable for all ages. The atmosphere of this musical never gets old and is always ready to welcome new viewers.

The score, masterfully crafted by the iconic duo of Elton John and Tim Rice, is a glorious symphony of sound that seamlessly blends traditional African music with contemporary pop and Broadway-style tunes. This phenomenal musical arrangement has been a cornerstone of the show's enduring success and popularity since its debut in 1997. Elton John's melodic genius and Tim Rice's lyrical prowess are vividly displayed through timeless compositions, such as "Circle of Life," "Can You Feel The Love Tonight," and "Hakuna Matata." These songs, among others, create a rich and colorful sonic tapestry that captivates the audience, transporting them into the heart of the African savannah. 

Although the 1994 film undoubtedly enthralled children around the globe, its complex narrative also strikes a chord with audiences of all ages. Simba's adventure has become a fan favorite, and the Broadway adaptation of this story revives beloved characters in a stunning and emotionally charged performance boasting a showstopping score that equals the impact of the original animated classic.

It is a touching show about family, friendship, and finding your place in the world. The Lion King is a fantastic chance for groups to experience theatre together and relish in the wonderment on stage and the circle of life we are all a part of.

The Lion King beautifully portrays themes of family, both the one we are born into and the one we choose for ourselves, as well as discovering one's purpose. It offers an excellent opportunity for groups to enjoy theatre together, as this brilliant performance shows them what it truly means to become a part of the universal circle of life.
