I’m not ashamed: I fuckin’ love Disney’s The Lion King. There’s Rafiki runnin’ around being all Yoda-y and shit, Timon and Pumbaa crackin’ wise, Jeremy Irons as a grumpy lion, a plot that tells the story of Hamlet but with adorable animals—AWESOME. Now, the touring production of Julie Taymor’s Broadway adaptation hits Portland with crazy costumes and staging, and it will be fantastic. Motherfuckin’ circle of life, yo! ERIK HENRIKSEN
