Including Swahili and Zulu, this musical remarkably features 5 indigenous African languages, and the ensemble of performers involved is crucial in its accomplishments.
“Considering that The Lion King is so imbued with rhythms rooted in these [Gambian] traditions, sustaining enthusiasm for the show is effortless," explains Stefan Monssen, a percussionist trained in African techniques.
Variety expresses admiration on the musical, calling it as a “new generation of felines” that continues to take over Broadway by storm. In this assessment, it is highlighted that the Walt Disney Company has efficiently positioned itself as a serious and ambitious player in the legitimate theater scene.
