Rating: You Should Go
I have been a big fan of The Lion King movie since it was released. Nathan went to see the musical with his family when he was young, so for my birthday we both went to experience it together.
We saw it at the Orange County Performing Arts Center (OCPAC) in the Segerstrom Hall theater. OCPAC is a nice group of theaters. As far as the one we saw The Lion King in, we sat in Tier 1 near the back right and had our view slightly blocked by the Tier above us. Probably not the best place to sit, but it
was the closest we could get at the mid-range price (about $58 a ticket). Also, it was a really easy spot to get out during intermission and be first in line for the souvenirs. (By the way, we bought red and gray shirts with the logo on them and they fit great even after washing.)
As far as the musical itself, it was amazing. To get the best experience, you want to splurge and get orchestra seating because that's where all the actors dance down the aisles. The actors who played young Simba and Nala were the most impressive. I don't know how kids their age can have such great voices and dance so well. It's a fun experience for people of any age and we think You Should Go.
