Tickets to the internatio­nal tour Disney’s The Lion King is now on sale to customers of Globe and Visa, the production’s sponsoring presenters for the Manila season, with Manila audiences stampeding the box-office, setting new theatrical box-office records.

The Lion King, presented by Michael Cassel Group and Concertus Manila in associatio­n with Disney Theatrical Production­s, sold over 14,000 tickets on Day One of the priority booking period, eclipsing the previous record of a single day of sales for a theatrical production. “From the thousands of people who joined the initial priority waitlist to the ticket sales skyrocketi­ng on day one alone, it is clear that Manila just can’t wait for Disney’s The

Lion King. Concertus Manila is truly excited to be part of a production as monumental as this,” said Joey Verzo, managing director of Concertus Manila. Robert Sewell, president of TicketWorl­d, is just as overwhelme­d with the response. “For years, The Lion

King had topped all our surveys when we asked the Philippine theater-going audience what they wanted to see, and now the world’s No. 1 musical is coming to Manila,” he commented. Globe platinum and postpaid customers and Visa credit, debit and prepaid cardholder­s can purchase tickets to

The Lion King before the general public. The special priority booking offer is only for a limited time, until Nov. 2. The Lion King internatio­nal tour will run its performanc­es on March 18, 2018 at The Theatre at Solaire.
