An adorable Easter surprise from THE LION KING!

Disney's international mega-hit THE LION KING is Broadway's most lucrative production to date and a brand new social media image celebrating the Easter season is now available to view.

The official Facebook page posted a mock-up photo of an adorable Rafiki-esque version of popular Easter candy Peeps earlier today, writing, "Rafiki + PEEPS = Ra'peep'ki".

The official description of The Lion King on Broadway is as follows: "In its 18th year, THE LION KING remains ascendant as one of the most popular stage musicals in the world. Since its Broadway premiere on November 13, 1997, 22 global productions have been seen by more than 75 million people and, cumulatively, run a staggering 112 years. Produced by Disney Theatrical Productions (under the direction of Thomas Schumacher), THE LION KING is only the second show in history to generate five productions worldwide running 10 or more years. Translated into seven different languages (Japanese, German, Korean, French, Dutch, Spanish and Portuguese), productions of THE LION KING can currently be seen on Broadway; London's West End; Hamburg; Tokyo; Madrid; Melbourne, Australia; Basel, Switzerland; and on tour across North America and Japan, for a total of nine productions running concurrently across the globe. Having played 20 countries on every continent except Antarctica, THE LION KING's worldwide gross exceeds that of any film, Broadway show or other entertainment title in box office history."
