The Lion King: The Broadway Musical

On Thursday, my mom, my step-dad and I took a four hour drive to catch "The Lion King: Broadway Musical" before it left Toledo, Ohio.  We found $125 tickets for only $65!! Meaning that we were lucky enough to be in the 2nd row on the floor.  Meaning that every fantastic costume and every breathtaking set, was able to be seen in full detail and I will never have an experience quite like this ever again on a stage.  This show was a knockout and, growing up with the movie, the music, the story, and the whole deal, made "The Lion King" that much more enjoyable.  This show was not only a pleasure for the eyes, ears, and senses, but also for the heart.  It made me think back to when I used to watch the movie, memorize the songs, and brought the magic of Disney and the magic of Broadway--working together to produce a show that I will never ever forget.  I now can see why this show has been going strong after 10 years on Broadway, and, if audiences are like the audience we had, then they must receive a standing ovation for every performance.  So, in conclusion, if you are ever in New York, or anywhere close (Its on a national Tour) you need to take some time and go see it.  You won't be sorry, I promise you.  This is an experience I'll never ever forget.  GO SEE "THE LION KING" NOW!

Have a good one everyone.
Hope you all had a wonderful Easter 
and a fantastic Spring Break!
