The Lion King

I saw the Saturday matinee of "The Lion King" in Atlanta and it was fabulous.

If you haven't seen it, go. And don't be late. If you're late, you'll miss the parade of the animals coming to see baby Simba.

You'll be amazed at the actors on stilts, with masks and huge contraptions around their bodies.

The acting, dancing and singing is superb, just as you would imagine a Disney production to be.

"The Lion King" can be seen at 8 p.m. April 10-11, April 15-18, April 22-25 and April 29-May 2; 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. April 12, April 19, April 26, May 3; 1 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. April 13, April 20, April 27 and May 4 in the Atlanta Civic Center, 395 Piedmont Ave. N.E.

Tickets are $22.50-$125.

In Columbus, you can buy tickets at the Columbus Civic Center's box office, which is open 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Monday-Friday or by going to area Publix grocery stores. To buy tickets online, go to go to www.ticketmaster.com To charge tickets by phone, call 706-494-8330.
