The airdate for the episode will be announced shortly, but it is set to involve Fedetowsky auditioning “seven men to try and sing and dance their way into her heart with the hopes of being chosen to make his Broadway debut with her in that night’s performance of” The Lion King. The show premieres May 24 (9:02-10 PM ET) on ABC. Beginning May 31, the show’s regular airtime of 8-10:02 PM ET will go into effect.
The Lion King won six 1998 Tony Awards, including Best Musical. The Disney production is currently running at the Minskoff Theatre.
