I went with my friend to see this while visiting the great Las Vegas. I am not a huge musical fan but enjoyed this. We were upgraded to the front which makes a huge difference compared to where we were. The performers were amazing I really liked Scar, rafiki, Timon and Pumba. The dancers were also very good. The show is long which thank goodness one of the ushers told me that before it started so that I knew to use the restroom. I liked the elephants and giraffes that would come on to stage. Some of them would run through the aisle before and during intermission. My friend who is into the musical thing said it was one of the best she has seen.
One main point that made it really funny and nice was that they threw in some modern day crack like one being about the economy and the weather. That was unique.
We were able to get tickets that same day but that might not be true as it soon closes in Vegas. They also have a very nice gift store. I would go see this again. And hopefully we would be upgraded again. he he.
