Disney’s The Lion King has captivated the imagination of audiences around the world, and now you have the opportunity to produce this one-of-a-kind musical in your community. Bring the African savanna to life on your stage with Simba, Rafiki and an unforgettable cast of characters as they journey from Pride Rock to the jungle and back again in this inspiring, coming-of-age tale.

The Lion King JR. features classic songs from the Broadway musical and animated feature film, including “I Just Can’t Wait to Be King,” “He Lives in You,” and “Hakuna Matata.” Young performers will also get the chance to learn a wide range of new theatrical skills—such as mask-making and puppetry—encouraging them to explore this beloved story with creativity and pride.

Support Our Musical Theater Program

World Upside Down, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to nurturing young performing artists in Greenville, SC, invites you to make a lasting impact on our community. Through high-quality theatrical productions, we provide young performers with a platform to showcase their talents, inspire audiences of all ages, and enrich lives. However, as a non-profit, we rely on the generous support of local businesses like yours to develop these enriching performances. Your donations go towards tuition sponsorship and production costs (costumes, set design, large puppet creation, teaching artists, headsets, lighting and audio technicians, and more). You can do so in a number of ways: giveaways, sponsorship, gift-a-ticket, and attend our shows! 

Giveaways

You can donate gift cards or coupons to be raffled off on opening night, creating additional excitement for our audience.

Sponsors: Goal of $15,000

This year, we present The Lion King, Jr. – a beloved classic! With five shows reaching up to 400 attendees each, your sponsorship can expose your brand to a captive audience of up to 2,000 viewers. We’re excited to offer a unique “video sponsorship” opportunity this year, allowing you to showcase your business through a pre-show video reaching a substantial audience.
