This was the best clip I found on youtube. there are many others and i can't stop watching.
One of the most amazing things I saw in my life!
The expectation:
Since I was a kid this movie makes me reflect a lot, because the history is about family being an example to their kids and kids being proud of their family, about how life is difficult, friends and of course, represented by the name of one of the most important songs (The Circle of Life).
The atmosphere:
The Lyceum Theatre is a 2,100-seat West End theatre located in the City of Westminster, on Wellington Street, just off the Strand. There has been a theatre with this name in the locality since 1765, and the present site opened on 14 July 1834 to a design by Samuel Beazley.[2] The building was unique in that it had a balcony overhanging the dress circle. It was built by the partnership of Peto & Grissell.
The music:
Legend Award. In the early 1990s, Elton collaborated with lyricist Tim Rice on the soundtrack for The Lion King, winning him an Academy Award®.
The album produced two top-selling, award-winning singles: “Can You Feel the Love Tonight” and “Circle of Life.”
The Tony® Award-winning Broadway productions of The Lion King and Aidaboth awarded Elton with GRAMMYS® for Best Musical Show Album.
Also, many other incredible producers and musicians.
The Stage:
Seriously? The stage folds and unfolds like origami, it's unbelievable!!!
The costumes and make-up:

There are 2 costumes at V&A. I used to go there frequently and I had seen it before but now that I have watched the musical I will pay more attention.
The actors:
They are perfect; no mistakes, singers and dancers, very intense and complex choreography. They must be very disciplined to make it all work.
The kid actors playing Simba and Nala are so cute.
My opinion:
I do recommend this musical, As I said before it was one of the best experiences in my life,
I was crying when the stage curtains opened with the first song !!!
Bye see you next post!
