In 1994 Disney introduced the world to The Lion King, a musical feature animation, about deception, finding the truth and taking your rightful place. With characters like Timon and Pumbaa, the evil Scar, Mufasa, Sarabi and Nala, it's no wonder that Simba, the hero of the story became so beloved. 2019 sees the release of a new CGI, live action re-make of the film to mark the 25th Anniversary of a musical story that is still popular in theatre today, thanks to its musical score and lyrics by Tim Rice and Sir Elton John – including "Hakuna Matata", "Can you feel the love tonight" and "Circle of Life".
