Why you should go…

Julie Taymor's staging of The Lion King is renowned for its innovative masks and puppets that bring the African savanna to life. Running at the Minskoff Theatre since 1997, it is one of the highest-grossing productions in box office history worldwide. The opening 'Circle of Life' procession down the theatre aisles is a signature moment.
