Snapshots: Lion King Construction Underway at Bass Concert Hall

Less than two weeks remain before UT Performing Arts Center officially begins its limited run of Lion King, and crews at Bass Concert Hall are working feverishly to complete the interior renovations. Two hundred seats have been removed from the venue, which normally holds nearly 3,000 people, to make room for the grand opening processional, putting the audience right in the middle of the action. The critically acclaimed, Tony award winning Broadway adaptation of Disney's mid-90s classic runs from February 15 through March 25.

I saw The Lion King in London a couple of years ago. I was skeptical, but let me tell you: it. was. awesome.

I saw it on Broadway a few years back--it really is amazing...plus, if you've seen the movie, you already have all the songs memorized.
