5 shows added to The Lion King debut in Abu Dhabi

ABU DHABI, October 10, 2022

The promoter of The Lion King’s Middle East debut has announced that, following unprecedented demand for tickets, five extra shows have been added to the award-winning musical’s historic run in Abu Dhabi.
 
Set to be held at Etihad Arena on Yas Island, the curtain will rise for the first time on November 16 and close for the last time on December 10, with five evening shows now scheduled to take place at 8 pm on November 22, 23 and 30, as well as December 6 and 7.
 
Nicolas Renna, Managing Director of Proactiv Entertainment, the promotor responsible for bringing the musical to the Middle East, said demand in the region has exceeded expectations and urged those keen to buy tickets to do so at the earliest opportunity to avoid disappointment. 
 
“With The Lion King coming to the region for the first time, we expected a positive reaction when tickets went on sale, but the overall response has far exceeded our initial expectations,” Renna said. “We’re delighted to be able to add these additional five performances and provide audiences further opportunities to experience the magic of Disney’s landmark musical event. We encourage everyone to secure their tickets before they sell out.”
 
Michael Cassel, CEO of Michael Cassel Group, the theatrical producer leading The Lion King’s four-week run at Etihad Arena, added: “It has been wonderful to see UAE audiences embrace The Lion King with such enthusiasm, allowing us to extend the season further. To be bringing Julie Taymor’s extraordinary vision, exactly as audiences have enjoyed it on Broadway and around the world, to Abu Dhabi for the first time is truly an honour.”  -TradeArabia News Service
