Hello! I’m just wondering if the traveling Lion King show also does the animal parade like in NY. I’m looking at tickets and trying to decide the best place to sit when it comes to Boston for me and my grandmother. Thanks in advance!

Q:
Myself, a teenager and a 10 year old (56 inches tall) would like to watch Lion King this August. A few questions: We prefer to sit in the center. Is row F, H, K, L better? I have heard that seats that are too front are not good since you can't see. Is F too front especially for the 10 year old? F109-111 while the H K L seats are around 110-119 around there. I notice the F seats are available on Friday 8pm and all the seats on this show are actually cheaper than other days. Is there a different or worst cast on Friday? Thanks so much!
A:
There is a website called viewfrommyseat that can give you a better idea of what to look for.
Q:
How long does the show last? Three hours ?
A:
Should be about 2.5 hours. With intermission, maybe finish in about 3 hours.

That’s tricky! There are so many, it’s like recommending novels. Here’s a few suggestions. As Harry Potter fans, the Cursed Child 2-parter was amazing. Come From Away is an incredible, upbeat and unique perspective of 9/11 from a tiny town in Canada that hosted 33 jumbo jets, more guests than lived in the town itself. Seeing amongst New Yorkers was special. Light and considerably less expensive (discounted tickets out there), I enjoyed Kinky Boots. Disney fans of all ages can appreciate Lion King-costumes are beyond creative. I can tell you what shows didn’t seem to have a story, or if they did, were hard to follow for me, despite the rave reviews. Two that stand out were Cats and Phantom of the Opera. Why don’t you check out one of the Broadway websites and seek synopses that sound appealing? Then check trip advisor for opinions of those shows? Since my best friend moved to NY a few years ago, I’ve seen quite a few recently and truly enjoy theater despite having not an ounce of musical talent myself! :)
