The Lion King continues ascendant as one of the most popular stage musicals in the world. Since its premiere on November 13, 1997, the show has toured the world and been seen by more than 100 million people.
Giraffes strut. Birds swoop. Gazelles leap. The entire Serengeti comes to life as never before. And as the music soars, Pride Rock slowly emerges from the mist. This is Disney's THE LION KING, making its triumphant return to the Center for Performing Arts!
