An adaptation of the beloved Disney animated movie, The Lion King is the tale of a young lion cub finding his way in the world and his journey to become the King of all lions.
Simba is destined to become the King of the Pridelands but is scared away by his evil uncle, Scar. Simba flees, but with the help of Rafiki a wise old baboon, Timon the comedic meerkat, his warthog sidekick Pumbaa and his best friend Nala, Simba discovers the benefits of friendship and a few of life's lessons.
