Does anyone know how many casts they have performing this show each day because 8 shows a day for one cast would be insanity.

Even though it was raining, it was a perfect day for the 7:00 PM Festival of the Lion King. Everyone, including the Tumble Monkeys, performed quite well. Not only was everyone there, but their performance was exceptional.

Blink, blink. Breathe, breathe. Day in, day out.
I know some disagree, but Lion King (to me) is the best live action show, period. Even better than broadway, i say this because I have no interest in sitting in a theater for more than an hour. 30 minutes is just right.
You're right. I disagree. A majority of people would disagree. Who the heck ranks Festival of the Lion King over the broadway show? Have you seen the broadway show? Jesus it's the most spectacular and visually stunning thing I've ever seen in my life!

On a smaller note, I believe Finding Nemo the Musical is a much better show. But THAT is a better comparison than a broadway show. Lordy.

I clearly said my rationale! I have no interest in sitting in a Broadway show. Specific to disney, lion King is better than Nemo. That show while good is a bore.

Disney has a casting call for Tumble Monkeys up on their site for some time now. Must be an issue of having enough performers.

I just saw FOTLK today, and the Tumble Monkeys were there, but the bird was completely grounded (and solo). I remember this part being aerial. Does anyone know when this change occurred?

She flew when I saw it last month.

Sounds like you saw the contingency version. She normally does fly.
