The Lion King
Pittsburgh City Paper - Pittsburgh: "And so The Lion King has roared back into Pittsburgh, becoming quite the mane event. And with good reason. Julie Taymor's world-touring musical take on the animated Disney cartoon bursts with more pride than can be found in any lion's den. The show's stars are the production values (this is good, and in no way denigrates the human cast): elaborate costumes, stunning lighting and, of course, larger-than-life puppets that take The Lion King to a level several paws above all other musicals. Let those shows go live on Avenue Q."

i think this article does a good job to show the distinction between shows like the lion king and shows like avenue q. it made me wonder if it makes sense to pay the same amount of money to see both. in my opinion, and i think the author agrees, the lion king will definitely give you more for your money.
