    I’ve always said that the opening number of the Lion King is worth the price of admission itself. This rehearsal is so emotional. Well done!

      I went and saw this play a couple of years ago and I was so moved by the entire production. The opening definitely brought tears to my eyes. I might be the only person to say this but I saw Hamilton and was actually bored. I don't know what the hype was all about. The Lion King is 100 times better

      From the day we arrive on the planet
      And blinking, step into the sun There's more to see than can ever be seen
      More to do than can ever be done.
      There's far too much to take in here.
      More to find than can ever be found.
      But the sun rolling high Through the sapphire sky Keeps great and small on the endless round.
      It's the Circle of Life And it moves us all
      Through despair and hope Through faith and love
      Till we find our place
      On the path unwinding
      In the Circle, The Circle of Life It's the Circle of Life And it moves us all
      Through despair and hope Through faith and love
      Till we find our place
      On the path unwinding

      The harmonies in the voices and those chords progressions just move the soul.

    What sets this song apart from many others is that it hits your spirit before it hits your emotions or intellectual faculties. There is an unmistakable, undeniable, underlying spiritual evocation that provokes the spirit to respond before the mind can fully understand why tears are emerging.

    Theater major here. This song has always been a masterpiece--and yes, I'm old enough to remember when the original film was in theaters--but this particular rendition hits so hard. The pandemic has brought us powerfully and painfully through all the aspects of the circle mentioned in the lyrics, and knowing that we're, gods willing, emerging into the next round, returning to our craft of the stage we love so dear, is extremely poignant. In times of great sorrow, the human soul longs for stories and storytellers, and it's an honor to provide that through an art that's been a tradition for thousands of years. Bravo to the cast and blessed be. )O(

    Congratulations: it's the first time I see a video no one dislikes.

    I just saw a glimpse of it on TikTok and had to search for the whole song. Boy I cried like crazy. Bawled my eyes out. This song is so powerful, and the choir behind it is so wonderful. An absolutely stunning performance. This song and it doesn't matter if it is on the Disney movie or here always give me the chills and makes me cry. Thank you so much for sharing this.

    I just sobbed at this!
    I remember seeing the Lion King at the cinema when it first came out- I took my 2 nieces - they were 8 and 10 at the time - they sobbed at the opening sequence.
    It’s beautiful music, picture and the best animated film I've seen ever!

I will not say anything more i do not want to spoil it if your going to watch it. One beautiful thing happened Two young boys were in front of us with there parents. When Hakuna Matta started. The boys were clapping and singing along. Very touching, a beautiful film , done with love on stage. Thank you all for a amazing night.

    Idk how many times I've watched this and I've cried every time, seeing this on Broadway a couple years ago I was so emotional during the opening act. This is my all time favorite Disney movie and the only Broadway show I've ever wanted to see on Broadway, the raw emotions of all the preformers being able to start to bring this back to an audience is absolutely amazing and you can feel it in all of them!! #GOAT

    Every time I hear this song I cannot stop crying. I don't know why but it is just so emotional for me. And for so many millions of others, I'm sure. I know a lot of it has to do with my love for Elton John. With this song, the way it's sung, such inspiration, so much from the depths of their souls. It's so breathtaking.

    God bless you all with your amazing voices and you’re blessings us. Thank you, thank you. 🙏🙏👍👍👏👏👏
