Join us for a truly magical experience as we proudly present Disney’s The Lion King Jr. — a heartwarming production where young artists with special needs take center stage, supported by peer mentors and an incredible creative team.

This isn’t just a show — it’s a celebration of inclusion, joy, and the power of the arts to uplift and unite. From the iconic songs to the inspiring performances, you’ll laugh, cheer, and maybe even cry (the happy kind).

Come be part of something bigger than Broadway.
Witness the roar of talent in our own community.
Leave with a full heart and a standing ovation.

Admission is FREE — Donations are appreciated to help us continue creating opportunities for every child to shine.
