The Mogador Theatre will be hosting the “The Lion King” musical comedy, based on the cartoon film, this autumn.
Director Julie Taymor, has turned the film version into an enchanting theatre adaptation. She had rewritten the story and enriched it with new songs by Elton John, South African melodies and beats, choreography and lively decor.
