Last weekend may have brought us an extra hour of sleep, but we are now playing in dark mode for the foreseeable future, so don’t squander away those precious daytime hours and enjoy yourself this weekend. If you’re worried that you won’t be able to make the most of what little daytime we have this time of year, don’t worry; there is also plenty to do after darkness falls.
For many, the animated movie The Lion King was a formative part of their childhood. We are no exception and have been looking forward to the return of Disney’s The Lion King to the National Arts Centre. Spoiler alert—the wait was worth it!
There are plenty of spooky-themed events taking place this weekend, but even if that’s not your thing, there are so many great things to check out across the city this weekend!
Broadway Across Canada brings the touring production of Disney’s The Lion King to the National Arts Centre starting Oct. 24 for an extended run with additional matinee performances. A six-time Tony Award-winning show, including Best Musical, it’s based on the animated Disney film we all know and love. A production full of grandeur, this show promises to bring audiences into the beauty and sounds of the Pride Lands. We got to chat with Erick D. Patrick, who plays the role of Simba, to learn more about the touring production.
It’s one of our favourite times of the year, Broadway Across Canada announced their new season at the National Arts Centre. We are thrilled at the lineup and think you should be, too. There are two shows left in the current season for which you can still purchase tickets for SIX starting May 21 and Les Misérables in August.
