The Official GREATEST SHOWMAN ‘CIRCUS SPECTACULAR’ is now playing in London’s Earls Court
About the Show
Come Alive! The Greatest Showman Circus Spectacular is an extraordinary homage to the beloved 2017 Hugh Jackman musical The Greatest Showman, featuring all the chart-topping hits from Michael Gracey’s musical – including ‘A Million Dreams’ and ‘This Is Me!’.
Rather than simply re-telling the film’s story, Come Alive – the Greatest Showman Circus Spectacular faithfully re-creates the experience of one of P.T. Barnum’s legendary circus shows inside the theatre, transforming the Empress Museum into a 700-seat big-top.
In the absence of Barnum himself, the story this time is focused on Max, a young circus enthusiast who is pulled into the spotlight by Simon, the charismatic circus ringmaster and becomes wrapped up in the glamorous world of circus showbiz. You’ve heard the songs, you’ve seen the film, so grab your tickets and make sure you don’t miss out on the most spectacular shows of the year.
