The Lion King is adapted from the much loved Disney film. The show has original music by Sir Elton John and Tim Rice, and with the aid of vibrant costumes and stunning effects the animals of Africa are brought to life.
Tricked in to believing that he killed his father by his evil uncle 'Scar' - who has his sights on being king- the prince Simba flees his homeland. Simba embarks on an adventure of exploration with help from some friends: Rafiki a wise old baboon, Timon the comedic meerkat and his side-kick Pumbaa - a warthog with a very big heart- and of course his best friend Nala.
Simba learns a few of life's lessons on the way with the help of his friends, but does he claim his rightful place as King?
