The Lion King

So tonight we went to see "The Lion King" at the Wharton Center on Michigan State's campus.

It was really, really cool. I really like the costumes that the performers used, and some of the other "special effects" that were used during the show. The part where Simba sees his father in the stars was just absolutely amazing.

Another thing that I really liked about the effects was the fact that I have no clue how they did some of them. The father in the stars, the moving masks, some of the other costumes...they were just so amazingly done that they defied logic...and I was honestly trying to figure some of them out, and just couldn't.

We had great seats, too. Fourth row from the stage, on the left side of the stage (as the performers looked out) and about 15 feet from one of the bongo drummers.

All in all, it was an awesome show!!!
