Fans of the hit West End musical The Lion King can see exactly how the show's fantastic stage characters were created thanks to a special exhibition now showing at London's National Geographic Store.

Sketches, Models, Films and Photographs

The shop, located on London's Regent Street, reveals the designs and inspiration behind the popular production including sketches, models, films and photographs showing how director Julie Taymor and the show's creative team conceived and developed the musical adaptation of Disney's memorable movie.

The Exploring The Lion King London Exhibition also allows visitors the chance to see some of the costumes, masks and puppets that bring to life the story on stage at the Lyceum Theatre.

A Visually Stunning Production

With the sweeping score from Elton John and tribal-flavoured incidental music and unique lighting, The Lion King is visually stunning, transporting audiences to a dazzling African world to follow the story of lion cub Simba, and his epic adventure from a young outcast to King of the Pride.

No Entrance Fee for Exhibition

Entrance to Exploring The Lion King London is free and the exhibition can be visited anytime during the National Geographic store's opening hours:
