As a recent birthday gift I was treated to a wonderful weekend in New York City; the highlight was orchestra tickets to see The Lion King on Broadway. What a show! From the "animals" and characters' entrance, throughout the entire performance the audience was transported to Africa. The costumes, sounds, music and scenery were rich African culture. There were moments that you if you believed hard enough you could sense and feel the African savannah and the movements for the animals as if you were on an actual safari. Sometimes you don't have travel far or at all to have a wonderful cultural experience.
