Disney's The Lion King Behind The Curtain

Entire original broadcast I produced for Disney six months following the 9/11 attacks in NYC featuring the traveling Broadway production put together for Disney's The Lion King.

There’s absolutely nothing like it on earth it is VERY SPECIAL

[@sukybasasavage1229]

I remember seeing this at the beginning of the lion King movie qs a child and I was so enthralled I wanted to badly to see this live

[@solanoscrossoverproduction3930]

Hey it’s Patrick Page, the actor who plays many characters in Broadway like Lumiere, Scar, Claude Frollo, the Green Goblin, & the Grinch.

[@myyaoibetch]

I last saw him in Hadestown a few years ago-- he is so much younger here!

[@queenmedesa]

He is such a great Frollo!

[@samirsedky3324]

He is so amazing at playing bad guys!

[@joshuagarbett]

It’s the best stage show on earth

[@Vietnam_Da]

You are so right

[@mcmusicm]

I never liked musicals but this was by far the best thing I've seen on a stage. I was in awe since it started.

[@narottamcecil1803]

The fact that you see the gazelle get torn apart by the lionesses is really terrifying, and the fact that they have them ululating once they do so, makes it scarier.

[@skunkman9815]

That’s what real lionesses do in real life (except they don’t ululate)

[@narottamcecil1803]

@@skunkman9815 Well, it’s when the actors revealed the disassembled pieces before the audience that freaked me out. I’m pretty sure that model was probably designed for that.

Thank you for letting me love watching the magic of making Lion King come alive on stage 💖💖💖💖🌹🌹🌹💖💖💖‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

They should adapt lots of Disney movies into Broadway musicals

Mufasa is the strong lion performing of Zazu, and father of Simba. Rafiki is the mandrill of the pride with a stick and friend of Simba and Mufasa. Zazu is the Hornbill of Simba and also Mufasa

I have an idea for another Disney musical The muppet movie and the muppets wouldn’t be puppets like the actual movie, they’d be people in masks like in the lion king, and Julie taymor would also direct
