It’s important to pay our respects to the ones who came before us as Mufasa once said wisely to Simba. @bonita_hamilton_caesar leads the way and carries on that tradition ❤️
Can you feel the love tonight? @derekadamsmusic and @lihlecele91 met on the Rafiki tour in 2017 and found love in the Pridelands!

#BroadwayIsOpen. Spread the word, so Broadway stories will continue to be seen and heard. At Lion King, we’ve had the pleasure of performing for audiences for over 20 years. And tonight, we celebrate the spirit of Broadway and New York City. The audience came together with the cast to take a group photo of a shared theater experience.
As we look onward into the new year, we're taking a moment to reflect on a performance that gave our cast + crew to work on something so memorable and meant so much us as New Yorkers!
It's our swings, understudies, crew, musicians, and countless others who allow the curtain to go up each night. Tonight, we give a special shoutout to our cub, Corey J. who stepped in as Young Nala - in a truly once in a lifetime Broadway performance. Thank you Corey J. and our entire Pride who has helped ready him for tonight's show.
