Adrian, 04 May 2025
Fantastic entertainment for all the family The show drew you in from the very start, with fantastic costumes, music and rhythm. It kept you engaged,with humour, pathos and amazing gymnastics. You didn't have to be a theatre buff to love every minute. Suitable for all ages.

Magique ! Pleins d'émotions Qualité d'interprétation !
Coralie, 28 Apr 2025
A joyous occasion for all generations. A wonderful family visit to the Lion King was enhanced by spectacular singing and dancing. Professional actors retold the story with enthusiasm and wit. We loved the setting and lighting and the African beat was great.
Lynne, 26 Apr 2025
A musical experience like no other I saw this first on Broadway and it blew me away. The story the music the performances were out of this world and this production is every bit as good
Wendy, 24 Apr 2025
Just amazing The show will leave you awestruck, it's so well organised and directed.
Rahul, 23 Apr 2025
Vibrant and joyful Very enjoyable evening, and I liked the focus on African culture and the original songs which were a bonus compared to the Disney movie. Theatre was a but warm though
Juliette, 19 Apr 2025
Formidabile Magnifica la recitazione ed il canto. Le scenografie ottimamente sincronizzate
Giuseppe, 13 Apr 2025
Still a great show, but not superlative any more Saw the matinee on a Wednesday. The kids were completely flat, painful to listen to. Timon wasn’t much better, and some of the lines in the skits between Timon and pumba were so mumbled or ill timed that they were incomprehensible, so the jokes didn’t land. are nThe rest was still as good as I’d remembered. Clearly not the “A” cast. Or if it is, the whole production has gone way downhill. Costumes and staging still as incredible as ever.
Abigail, 10 Apr 2025
What a show! We enjoyed every minute of this magnificent show.
Helena, 10 Apr 2025
Just amazing It was fourth time. My oldest son first saw it at 6.hes now 42 and loved it
Debbie, 06 Apr 2025

Ian, 06 Apr 2025
A must see Fast moving. Funny. Wonderful music and special effects brilliant. Always ask if you need assistance the staff were amazing
Linda, 27 Mar 2025
A faithful rehash of the Disney film Not really my sort of thing normally, but accompanied someone who wanted to see it. Costumes, acting, singing and staging were all brilliant. Unfortunately the audience were not very attentive. I have no problem at all with children talking or asking questions, but when grown adults are constantly talking, taking pictures *during* the show despite being warned prior to the show, and with no intervention by theatre staff, then it's a problem. Spoilt quite a lot of the experince. The rake of seats means also that a lot of the show is obscured by the people in front. I got the impression that it was "you want to see this, you've paid, now you just put up with it".
Garry, 27 Mar 2025
Enjoyable matinee performance Not suitable for very young children
Jan, 26 Mar 2025
Absolutely amazing show Costumes where excellent and actors/actresses first class everyone including music lighting and sign writer throughly enjoable the show went to fast

Fantastic Puppetry I first saw this show 20 years ago and at that time I enjoyed the music, dance, and songs. my 2nd time seeing it I focussed more on the puppetry skilled movements, the whole cast was outstanding, a brilliant show.
Jackie, 19 Mar 2025

The Lion King We attended this show 22+ years ago and it was just as awesome this time as the one we saw in Toronto Canada!!!
Different cast, costumes, presentation but the story was similar and thoroughly enjoyable!
Highly recommend that you see it!!!

Great Family Show Went to see show with my 2 8yr old boys, great family day out, we all loved the show 👏👏👏
Matthew, 20 Feb 2025
The sound system needs improving. Dialogues not audible in some parts. Great show. Great ensemble. Very enjoyable.
Sound system a bit of a let down.
Afzaal, 20 Feb 2025
Spellbinding show My daughter and I waited 20 years for the chance to get to London to see The Lion King.....and it was certainly worth the wait. We were spellbound by the actors, the music, the story, which was exactly as the original and the beautiful theatre. Most of the time was spent with tears as we realised a dream come true. Thank you, thank you
Amanda Jane, 19 Feb 2025
A feast of colour Excellent version
Michael, 13 Feb 2025
Just amazing! This show is just amazing.
Everything was perfect.
Latifa, 12 Feb 2025
Poor sound but great show Sound was very poor as if no one had microphones. What's with that?
Bernard, 12 Feb 2025
It was incredible Thank you so much 😊
I had a walking stick, so your lovely staff even offered to me and my friend better seats closer to the stage (and we didn’t need use stairs).
Thank you, I really appreciate your support and kindness 😊
Yuliia, 12 Feb 2025
Overall it was a good experience Desiny always trying to manipulate and play with kids mind by asking the audience for a donation to put LGBTQ subjects in schools. If they are seeking for charity, let Desiny supports Kids of Gaza and Africa pr rebuild Gaza again.
Ghanim, 11 Feb 2025
Awesome Excellent show from start to finish,a must see musical.
Nicholas, 09 Feb 2025
Love this show I would recommend this show to anyone it is quite magical. The storyline is stirring, the music and movement so stirring and the costumes are outstanding. It is gripping throughout. The only disappointment was we attended a matinee with about 1000 school children and their noise, constant fidgeting and clapping inappropriately thro some songs was distracting.
Dawn, 06 Feb 2025
What a treat! What a treat to watch such an all-around fantastic show. Great music, acting, costumes in a very friendly and comfortable atmosphere. My 10 year old was captivated, my teenager thought it was great - it made us think of which show we should go to watch next.
Johanna, 06 Feb 2025
Made my daughter happy She saw the movies Lion King 90’s and new plus Mufasa so she could understand the story she is only 6, and she was happy !!
Rocio, 29 Jan 2025
Amazing amazing amazing! The actors were incredible. The music was amazing. Costumes were perfect and looked realistic. The dances were very unique and entertaining. Overall you can tell how much effort went into this and how much tallent everyone has. So so fun.
Melanie, 27 Jan 2025
If you only see one show in your life…. This is the 3rd time I have seen the lion king & it never fails to move me!
Anne, 27 Jan 2025
Out of this world! Perfect show, must see musical, costumes, stage, music amazing. It felt a little too long for my 6 year old daughter since it was the 7.30pm matinee, prefer the afternoon matinee if you can. Stunning performers!! Thank you for all the efforts!
Alparslan, 21 Jan 2025
A must see This is my 3rd time seeing the lion king. There is SO much to see. Even after seeing it 3 times I honestly was still mesmerized. I love the costumes. I also love Nala’s voice. Rafikii sang he lives in you and it actually brought me to tears and the guy next to me. An amazing show. A must see. 😍
Donna, 20 Jan 2025
Hope you don’t sit back a high person! It was spoiled by the fact that a very large and high person was sitting in front of me and my grandson. It was impossible to se the hole scene even though he was sitting on a pillow.
Nina Cecilie Myren, 20 Jan 2025
Impressive from the very first to the last note I have been to many shows around the world, and I had high expectations for this show. We were not disappointed - great actors, fantastic costumes, blend between humor, show and dramatiurgic effects. Loved it all!
Annenita Bakker, 19 Jan 2025
100/10. Absolutely awesome. A definite must see! I would recommend seats in the circle rather than the stalks. Be prepared to have goose pimples. Outstanding from beginning to end!

Valerie, 13 Jan 2025
Mind blowing and heart opening! Wow, my first ever London show, flew from Jersey with my 10yr old. This was our first experience, not only di it not disappoint, it blew our minds....the story telling, the acting, dancing, music, costumes, the whole performance was out of this world. Must be the best show happening, top class. Not only the show but the amazing ushers also, they ran us to our seats as got a wrong train so was cutting it fine, was so relieved to make the show and not be refused. BEST EXPERIENCE FROM START TO FINSIH 🥰

Maria Carola Rita, 28 Dec 2024
Put this on your bucketlist! I'm not really a musical fan but the lion king is one i had to see especially because it was my birthday (24th of dec) it was the best gift ever! The first note hit you in the soul from then on it was spectacular! I laughed, cried and sing along.The production is amazing! Unfortunately I had to leave earlier to catch a plane. I missed like the last 15min. A good reason to come back and watch the show again!

the best show in town the special effect are extreamly outstanding the acting was superb and humerus in the rihgt places and the story line was easy to follow
Graham, 29 Nov 2024
Amazing !!!!!!!!! Amazing! Perfection! One of kind! The only problem is the scene of Simba and Scar fighting- not enough energy and powerful of Simba character! The children looks without energy also but this depends on directing
Slava, 28 Nov 2024
Excellent Everything was spectacular! The music, the actors and the costumes. You will get chills more than once.

Fantastic You forgot people were inside the animals. It was superb all round
Mary, 26 Nov 2024
Beautiful production!!!! Fabulous to see Lion King yesterday. It’s a great day out in London. We take our great city for granted. It’s a wonderful city either way much enjoyment and talent but it all get expensive so once in a while is fine with me. Love love love!
Rupa, 21 Nov 2024
Amazing ….not to be missed I didn’t know what to expect and it blew my mind how good it was
Really an amazing show
Rosemaria Sharon, 20 Nov 2024
A must see We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Lyceum Theatre in London to watch The Lion King. Whilst I had already seen this show in Melbourne, Australia years ago, this was an absolutely spectacular show, costumes, music, players, everything was outstanding.
Jenny, 19 Nov 2024
An Absolute Must See!! Everything about this show was amazing. So,so good in every respect. We loved it! Something I wanted to see for ages and eventually went with my grandchildren who were equally impressed.
Julie, 18 Nov 2024
Wonderfull Experience Wonderful show. Colourful and amusing show. God vocals
Ann Bettina, 18 Nov 2024
The most spectacular show I've ever seen! This show was absolutely spectacular, and an incredible interpretation of the movie I grew up loving as a child. I loved every minute, and shed a few tears at the start and end- I was moved by the sheer power and beauty of the production.
My 4 year old found some parts (like the hyeanas) a little scary.
Charissa, 18 Nov 2024
Best seats in town The show is amazing 👏 The costumes are really clever and the staging is beautiful. Stunning performance!
KATHLEEN, 16 Nov 2024

Ann, 12 Nov 2024
Simply stunning 20 years since we last saw the Lion King and it’s only got better ! Simply incredible xx
David, 07 Nov 2024
Fantastic immersive experience Fabulous show from start to finish. The characterisation of the animals is superb. Music is excellent and you are just whisked into the world of Simba and Co.
Margaret, 06 Nov 2024
Fabulous, mesmerising and magical!! A musical to remember, our kids simply adored the entire show!!

Just AMAZING Wonderful show
Maria, 30 Oct 2024
Wonderful It was very nice but i think young Nala should have been a little louder 😊 Very friendly cast
Aldana, 29 Oct 2024
Choosing a good seat location can be tricky No speakers at the back so stay close to the stage if you can
