We’ve already shared a look at the vaccination and testing requirements for Broadway shows, and the dates that 2 Disney on Broadway shows will return. But, what if you can’t make it to New York? No problem! You can actually be a part of the grand re-opening of one classic Disney on Broadway show right from the comfort of your couch!

The award-winning Disney musical The Lion King is set to return to Broadway soon! Want to join in on all the fun of this show’s reopening night? Then you’ll want to tune into @disneyonbroadway on TikTok for a LIVE event from the Minskoff Theatre.

The TikTok LIVE event is being held in support of The Actors Fund. According to Disney, The Actors Fund has actually “provided more than $22.6 million in direct financial assistance to more than 16,600 people since the beginning of the Broadway shutdown.”

So, if you’re a big fan of The Lion King, live theater, or just Disney in general, be sure to set your calendars for this special performance!
