A bipedal animatronic lion in a ringmaster's outfit stands in front of you, ushering people inside the Circus Playhouse and Food Emporium Restaurant. "Ladies and gentlemen, and children of all ages! Step right up! I am Lionel the friendly lion! Welcome to the Circus Playhouse and Food Emporium, featuring the Circus Playhouse Band! The best band in the land! Now, how can I be of assistance?" His eyes focus on you, they are dark but friendly. A genuinely kind smile is on his muzzle.
