We got home yesterday afternoon from our road trip. Other than the play, it was a normal kind of trip: a little eating, a little shopping, a little visiting. It was, as usual, just nice to get away.
Now, about The Lion King. It was simply one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had! The performance was absolutely fantastic from the make-up to the costumes to the music. While the story isn't anything to write home about--it IS after all a Disney story--the music and performances were mesmerizing. I am so in awe of anyone who can sing--and could THESE people SING! While my friend was impressed with the dancing--that would be her dream: to be able to dance--I couldn't get enough of the singing. (While I LOVE to sing every chance I can, NO ONE wants to hear me when I do!) The play started at 7:30 and we weren't out of the theater until after 10:00. The money we spent on the tickets was well worth it--and it still would have been worth it if we would have spent twice as much. Don't EVER pass up the opportunity to see this play!
Hope you all have a nice weekend--I know we will.
