In fact the entire area is vibrant and bustling more or less 24/7, a thrilling place to be whether or not you're going to the theatre.

Creative and a sensory extravagance experience Firstly my sister and I are from Kenya and we had never seen the live show. So we were super excited and had heard amazing reviews. Our seats were perfect, we could see everything and close enough to be pulled into the theatrical experience.
The opening is emotional and a feast for the senses.
The creativity and ability to get lost in your imagination because of the costumes and puppetry was outstanding.
All the main actors were very strong. Adult Simba could have been stronger vocally. Nala was outstanding! Mufasa was a gem. Too many to point out. All excellent and believable.
The rhythm, drums and vocals placed high in the boxes to the side of the stage was very effective as was the action near the audience.
The orchestra was fabulous.
We even managed to buy a drink in the bar nearest our seating area. Not too mad a rush. Bathrooms very close by.
One thing, a couple in front of us didn't realize that this is not for very young children and the child was disturbed.
The temperature of the theatre was perfect, considering the hot summer 2026. And advise re catching an uberor transport you might want to have a drink and let the crowds dispurse as the other theatres tend to come out at about the same time.
We dressed up and made a special event of it. Very very enjoyable experience. Thank you and well done to the actores, directora and crew ♥️
