The Preshow
Disney has great preshows and this one is the most interactive in all of Walt Disney World. When you arrive in the theater, you are instructed on how to make noise and move like one of the animals. As the show begins you make your noise and do your movement. It's fun to see how everyone gets involved.

The Attraction
This is a big show that tells the story of The Lion King in song, dance and acrobatics. The show starts out with a procession of performers, along with the king himself, who come in to the theater and actually put together the stage. Once the stage is set, the big show begins. It's almost like an old three ring circus.
Through music featured in the film, high-energy dances, and even fire juggling, Disney characters Timon, Simba, Pumbaa, Rafiki, Zazu, Mufasa and more team up with a traveling band of "African tribal performers" to tell the tale of a lion cub who can't wait to be king.

Here's a video from the closing of the show.
