I just found a good site about the Lyceum Theatre (where The Lion King is showing at the West End) for anyone here who is planning on seeing it soon. It has a seat map too which is handy cos I know that in the past I have paid a lot for seats with restricted views!

Here it is: http://www.theatres.tv/london/lyceum-theatre/

[quote="TheLittleFellow"]I have seen it 3 times in London. Has anyone here seen it on Broadway AND London's West End? Are there many differences between the two?[/quote]
I have!

And I thought that the main difference was that in London they spoke with British accents... :lol: There were two years between the shows I went to see though (Lyceum in 2008 and Minskoff in 2010) so undoubtedly there has been edits to it since I saw it in London. I was very, very impressed with the New York cast though; even more so than with the London ones that I've seen in 2004 and 2008, and they were amazing. So maybe that counts as a difference too? I dunno =P

I remember seeing a LOT of advertising when I went to London. Seriously, it was the biggest thing there.
It never came to my country, though... :(

I`m going to see it there (at the Lycum Theatre in London) this August. I`m so excited!

The TLK musical has never been put up in Scandinavia as far as I`m aware.. Thankfully, England is close by, lol.

Did you end up seeing it PrincessKiara?

I was going to see it in France and Germany, but then it stopped playing in France before I got the chance, and later when we made plans to see it in Germany, my boyfriend broke up with me, so I couldn't go anymore (I can't drive, hehe).

I've heard that TLKOB is also at Paris. I don't know if I'm right though :?

As I mentioned in the post before yours ;-) it stopped playing in France.
Their last show there was June 2009 I believe.

It's in Spain now!
And will be in Brazil in March.
