Disney’s The Lion King musical continues to reign across North America with a sold-out engagement in Toronto<\/a>, which concluded on Sunday, June 15 at The Princess of Wales Theatre.<\/p>\n

The triumphant seven-week return grossed over $11.75 million at the box office and entertained more than 100,000 patrons during 56 performances. The award-winning musical premiered in Toronto in April 2000 at the Princes of Wales Theatre, where it played 1,560 performances through January 2004 and returned in 2011 for an eight-week sold-out engagement.<\/p>\n

It is estimated that the Toronto engagement of The Lion King musical generated a $48 million economic benefit to the city from travel, hotels, restaurants, parking and other businesses patronized by both theatergoers and production staff. This figure is based upon a Touring Broadway League report which found that, on average, Broadway tours contribute an economic impact 4.17 times the gross ticket sales to the local metropolitan area’s economy.<\/p>\n
