The Lion EPK
The Lion is a one-man folk musical telling a true story of survival. With a guitar in hand, Ben confronts his turbulent life's journey from a rift in his childhood to his own brush with mortality. During 70 minutes of songs, monologues and virtuosic guitar playing, Ben tells an inspiring story of love, loss, despair and hope that reminds us how, even in our darkest moments, music, family and community can help us find our true voice and the strength to 'Weather the Storm'.

I wish I had seen this back then. I love this musical.
Love all the so called 'flops' 'Me and Juliet'; 'Pipe Dream' and especially 'Allegro' saw it in concert at the Barbican in the early 1990s and it was fab.
Great singing, decent arrangement, and she's acting the role. A lot of girls sing this song like they're happy--because of course they are, it's a great song, anyone would enjoy it. But the girl singing the song is miserable, because she's nuts about this guy and he's married to somebody who is wrong for him, but he can't see it (yet). I wonder if Allegro would have worked better if the character of Emily had been given a bigger role in the story. Probably Hammerstein wondered the same thing.
the line “how can i live up to this” sends shivers down my spine and is maybe my favorite line in any musical.
Fantastic job!!! You surely don't hear this sung very often, especially today, especially in the original context.
LYRICS: Who needs a lot of space? Who needs a lot of light? I’ll get myself a chair A pad and pen to write A ficus for the corner And some pictures hung just right And I have almost everything I need I’ll take some wooden crates And make a makeshift bar There’s an antiques fair in Rhinebeck I’ll just borrow someone’s car Some curtains for the window And some daisies in a jar And I have almost everything I need So it’s a bit dark So it’s a bit damp I’ll just close my eyes, Pretending I’m at camp It’s going to be great It’s going to be fun With a prayer for good luck And a bucket of Windex This room will be perfect For one The smell of baking bread Some good books I can read A fire escape for dreaming And a heart that’s finally freed A brand new life without you I’m a happy girl indeed And I have almost everything I need I have almost everything I need.
What a voice and The Piano Man is Seriously playing that Piano.
Will The Lion be coming to Manchester?
beautiful!!!!
🎉 þrðmð§m
I'm obsessed
Its a shocking heading for a u-tube broadcast when the songs mentioned and sung were written with Anthony Newley...
Awesome and cool!
Aw I love this I heard the Diana Dors version. I didn't know it was from a show. You sound a lot like Sutton Foster, it sounds wonderful!
eva is a blessing. was feeling really anxious today and by the end of the video i felt so at peace
Cooool Thumbs up!
never too late to discover another regal talent like her..she can literally kill any song!! keep on slaying, Eva..thank you for sharing foe uploading such content..
Where can I find the instrumental version of this song?
Is there a video of one of the performances? It seemed in the preview that there was quite different staging in this production compared to others, and more dance. I would really love to see how Charing Cross Theatre deals with the book and music. This production looks absolutely fantastic from the little bit I found online!
I don’t understand why it hasn’t become a hit Amazing musical
yessir 100% I love this musical with all of my heart
I heard this song on Elaine Paige's radio 2 show, and had to stop what I was doing and listen. It's beautifully sung. Please make available to download !
Came randomly across this on Spotify, love it so much!
This is gorgeous 💜
looking at the moon .how many of you have actually looked at the moon lately it is rising wax and setting wain ua-cam.com/video/CowHy4KLCw4/v-deo.html
the earth has tilted on its axis
Great song, guys - congratulations!
That was very moving and beautifully sung. I wonder if you can buy it for download as well as make a donation?
the song is boring, but it is so good to see and hear hadley fraser! i really wish there was more hadley content in this world, and i also really wish he was as into recording songs from his house as ramin karimloo is.
These lovely lyrics mean so much to me, as the moon has had a personal significant since I was 7 and my dad told me I had the same name as the Roman moon goddess Diana. I've only recently discovered Mr. Fraser's remarkable voice (and impressive CV!), and his interpretation of this song is both stunning, and gently calming, as I have no idea as to when I will be able to again hug my granddaughter. It was good to find a convenient way to donate from the US, as I have streamed and watched many filmed British stage productions during the past few months. Thank you to everyone involved in creating this video, am grateful to contribute in a very small way to benefit people in the British theatrical world, and am looking forward to when we can all attend and enjoy live theater again.

Aw. How utterly gorgeous. Like the very best songs it achieves its poignancy through a clarity and simplicity that’s very moving. It’s message could be applied to so many occasions in our lives and I think it’s going to be around for a very long time. Beautifully arranged and performed too. What a fabulous idea.
Sooooooooo good!!!!!
Bravo to each and everyone of you that took part in singing this beautiful song for a worthy cause. This is such a powerful rendition! Amazing vocals! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
They must hear us! Thank you for this, All the artists!
Well done everyone - totally wonderful
Magnificent - well done all. Everyone should hear you
Stunning 💘
Loud and clear!!
So annoying. Today I found out that Amour, one of my favourite musical soundtracks, actually premiered in London a whole year ago, and I had no idea! This is what happens when you rely on the TodayTix app for most of your theatre news. How was it?
What an encouraging song in hard time like now. Hope you all stay well, thank you!
Love "You only live twice".
Nice teaser. Tip: add a few tags to the video to improve discoverability on YT, like Michel Legrand, Amour, Charing Cross Theatre, etc...
Lovely, lovely score. Really looking forward to seeing this
So good!! Do you maybe have the sheet music for me??
Can't wait to see this. Please note also that on Friday 3rd May the Dominic Alldis Trio play an evening of Legrand's music at the Pheasantry, Kings Road, SW3 (8 pm start) , and on Sunday 5th former Radio 2 producer Anthony Wills presents a tribute to Michel, with rare recordings, at the Lancaster Hall Hotel, W2 (starting promptly at 2 pm).
Bravo!!
is this the original key?
I think so. Lisa Kirk originally did this on Broadway, and this sounds about right in terms of key.
What key is this in 😭
I'd love to see you performing the Red Dwarf theme...
OMG! Amazing
His!!! Voice!!!
she's so talented!
