The Lion King

I went to see the Lion King last night. It was fabulous. I feel, I just want to write a list of superlatives!

Have you seen it? If not, you really should if you get the opportunity!

I've been on Safari, but this had far more color, much more excitement, music, singing and dancing animals than I've ever seen from a top of a landrover.

My favorite character was the lady in the picture, the baboon witch doctor, v funny and a voice powered by twenty lungs for sure. My brother's was the grass; honestly the grass was hilarious. It was fascinating seeing all the humans manipulate the puppet extensions to make them animals, which float, spin and leap onto stage with whirling scenery and intense African drumming. There was even a to scale elephant!

The show has been hailed as The Lion King's return home - don't tell anyone, but its based in the east African savanna - in any case it's immensely popular, the audience were often clapping mid scene and the jokes in Zula or Xohsa went down well. It was wonderful!
