Last Thursday night, we went along to the Minskoff Theatre with Camille and Michael to see The Lion King.
I had never seen the movie or the play or really knew anything about it. Bill loved the movie, yet had never seen the play.
Something special about seeing it last Thursday was that Whoopi Goldberg would be making several appearances as different characters throughout the show. As we were standing outside the bathrooms, Whoopi walked right past us.
We took along some Fantales (Bill is a new convert!) and really enjoyed the show. I found some of the speaking parts a little hard to understand but it kept my attention considering I was falling asleep at 7pm and was all over the place last week. The theatre seemed to really suit the actual show – I was most impressed by the costumes and lighting.
You can see all the photos of Whoopi and read more about it here.
The View was there filming and it should be shown sometime during this week, so if you are in Australia you can see that on the W channel. 🙂
