Blown away
24 June 2019
The Lion King movie has been my favourite Disney movie since it came out, and while I was really excited to see the musical, I was skeptical as to how some of the scenes would be brought to life on the stage. I was not disappointed. In fact, I was blown away. Definitely worth the watch! We had an 8 year old and an 11 year old with us who both loved every moment too. A wonderful day out!
