The Lion King [CANCELLED] at Buell Theatre

The Lion King, the award-winning Best Musical, playing at Buell Theatre in Denver on Wednesday 29th December 2021. Since opening on Broadway in November 1997, THE LION KING has become the most successful musical in history. Or, to place it in a broader context, more than the combined global revenues of the six most popular Harry Potter films. One of the most excellent productions ever brought to life on stage. Newsweek called it “The most exciting, most inventive, most moving theatre that has ever come to Broadway.” Reflecting both worlds of western pop and African rhythm, there are 6 indigenous African languages sung and spoken throughout the show: Swahili, Zulu, Xhosa, Sotho, Tswana, Congolese. All combined with extraordinary dances, excellent costumes, the giraffe stands at a staggering eighteen feet high! The story of The Lion King is a powerful folk tale, a simple prince loses his kingdom to his usurper uncle, and then must go on a death-defying journey to discover the power inside himself in order to regain his rightful kingdom. The Lion King is a story of love and redemption that nobody should miss. Buy your tickets right now for an excellent night to remember forever!
