I am a big fan of this show, and agree with other posters here he note as being 'The Best Show On Property'. Simply fantastic. It has it ALL and the way it is staged is unique and interesting.
I see this show twice every time a visit, and have probably seen it over 35 to 40 times now. Love it love it love it...it NEVER gets 'old'!
In January i noted that the float 'animals' were looking a bit rough ( only a flash would bring it out...nothing you can really see during the actual show). I was checking them out closely as usual after the performance and thought they could use a bit TLC. GREAT news to hear that Simba and his friends have gone to the 'water hole' for a bath. Yay!
The additon of 'Talking Timon' was a big plus. I remember when the 'Dream Along With Mickey' stage show over at MK debuted with the animated heads. I immediately thought that this would work perfectly for FoTLK...and a year or so later there was Timon! It really adds a nice additional show element.
I tell everyone who visits to see this show. It is a NOT TO BE MISSED attraction. See it TWICE...once is not enough while you are visiting! As much as everyone rants about the 'Finding Nemo' stage show across the Park, 'Festival of the Lion King' wipes the floor IMO. Music, lighting, staging mechanics, fire dance, costumes, wire acts, giant 'animals'...and more...make it THE best stage show On Property indeed.
Any FoTLK Cm's reading - YOU GUYS ( and gals!) ROCK!!!! See ya in September!
