The Lion King

There were “no worries” at the Eccles Theater while we watched in awe the magic of the Lion King. The costumes were amazing and the theatre filled with wonder as the animals marched down the aisle for the opening number, “Circle of Life.” From the powerful performances to the incredible, vibrant scenery, it was a memorable experience our Sharetix community won’t soon forget. Thanks Arts for All for the fantastic opportunity.

Here are some of the comments from our Sharetix recipients about their Lion King experiences:

“This was the first theatre experience for my mentee's sister. She loved it and was amazed to see people that look like her on the stage.” - Tyler

“Seeing our foster daughter get dressed up and want her hair done to go to the play was a fun moment for me.” - Marshall

“It was a highlight in our stressful everyday routine. It gave us something to be excited about and the performance was AMAZING. So grateful we could attend when we otherwise wouldn't have been able to. A couple of weeks before we were wishing we could see the Lion King while it was in town, but the tickets were just too much. Thank you!!!”- Summer

“I grew up going to musicals and shows but haven't been able to offer similar experiences for my family. It meant so much to be able to take my child to see the Lion King. So many great shows come to Utah but our finances are tight and we just don't have the money for extras like this. Our seats were last row, but he loved it - especially when the animals came in during Circle of Life. You forget the wonder of children, how magical everything can be. This was one of those memories we'll always have - being together doing something special- what a gift. Thank you so much.” - Rachel
