The reasons that I would not go to The Lion King are threefold.
1. I am highly allergic to some animals and I dare not take the risk.
2. That smell you get from the big cats in a zoo especially on a hot day is disgusting, does The Lyceum have adequate air extraction?
3. Can't abide wild animals...
If I was to go tomorrow then probably Young Frankenstein, mainly because I adore Mel Brooks, I saw The Producers a few years ago and loved it.
Also I like the look of Labour Of Love.
I could not possibly comment as I have not been to The Lyceum since The Capitol Radio best disco in town and seeing Kid Creole And The Coconuts live.
However, if I was to go to London to see a show it would not be The Lion King.
