The Lion King was a phenomenal experience, even though I had what you would call an “obstructed” seat in the balcony. It didn’t matter. If a player was out of view, it was only for a matter of seconds.
There was only one hiccup during the night when the actor who was playing Scar had trouble with his microphone, which went out during the tail of ‘Be Prepared’. He swatted at it in effort to fix it, but it only made it worse. He sounded like he was under water. Lucky for the audience it came back a few seconds later.
The standout out for me was the actress who played Nala, Erica Ash. Her rendition of ‘Shadowland’ was a real “scorcher” as I like to say.
A truly once in a lifetime experience.
By the way, while in Detroit I ate an à la carte restaurant called The Sign of the Beef Carver. I had a hot turkey sandwich smothered in gravy with a slice of pumpkin pie on the side.

I saw this play a while back while i was still in school. It was wonderful. The reason why i got to see it was because my friend was the actor that was portraying the younger Simba. We made fun of him but it shut us up after we saw it.
Haha.
