THE LION KING Hosts The Bachelorette 6/14

Ali Fedotowsky, star of the sixth edition of "The Bachelorette," the female version of ABC's hit romance reality series, will be joined by seven bachelors for a group date at Disney's Tony Award-winning musical event, THE LION KING. The special "Broadway" date episode airs Monday, June 14 (8:00pm EST), on the ABC Television Network.

In week four, Ali's hunt for her soul mate includes a special trip to New York City where her Manhattan adventure starts at Broadway's Minskoff Theatre, home of THE LION KING. Together with Thomas Schumacher (president and producer of Disney Theatrical Productions) and members of THE LION KING creative team, Ali auditions the 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 landmark musical.
