Lion King Broadway

We are going to Las Vegas next month with DD who is three. I am trying to plan some kid friendly things to do there. I have never seen the Lion King broadway show and was wondering from those of you that have, do you think she is too young? Does anyone have any suggestions of other things we could do?

We took my DD when she was 4 and she was riveted but she also had experience going to shows like that. There are some dark moments but it is a thing to behold. I think your biggest issue would be her paying attention for that long. Does she usually sit through movies?

She really LOVES to watch live shows. It's her favorite thing to do at WDW. She does sit through movies pretty good too. Right now she is 3 but by the time we go she will practically be 4 (her birthday is the beginning of November).

If it is the only chance you will get to see it in a long time I would go. It is really wonderful.

I say go for it - it sounds like she can cope with the length of it. If it's anything like the Lion King in London (and I believe they are the same show), you are going to love it.

It's an amazing show but it might be a tad long for a 3 year old

I saw it here in Boston a few years ago and OMG! it was INCREDIBLE!!!!

If she enjoys the live shows and can sit through a movie, she might be ok - it will for sure keep her attention.

My DD is 17 yo now. While one of our favorite things to do is attend the live performances at Disney - we LOVE Aladdin at CA Adventure! , neither of us were wow'ed by Lion King on Broadway. And it was expensive!!! We attend a lot of Broadway plays, but this is the one I have liked the least - ever. I say to skip it if you can find something different.

We first took our daughter when she was 4 and she was fascinated. The show is truly, truly amazing. The music and costumes are top notch. Enjoy!

after seeing it TWICE with family and friends I've decided to take my 3 year old "neice" to see it next Sunday. And I'm not ashamed to admit I'm using her as an excuse to go one last time (it ends it's 6 week tour here on Sunday ) after seeing it I think she can handle it... most of the kids I sat around were very young and loved every minute of it.
