Based on the musical film starring Hugh Jackman, Zac Effron and Zendaya, The Greatest Showman follows entertainer and entrepreneur P.T. Barnum from humble beginnings to finding the world-renowned spectacle; the Barnum & Bailey Circus. The heart-warming story follows Barnum as he assembles a group of unique performers, including the bearded lady and a trapeze artist, to form a groundbreaking show that challenges societal norms and celebrates diversity.
However, as Barnum's circus gains popularity, he faces challenges that threaten to tear apart the very family and show he's worked so hard to build. Throughout his journey, Barnum learns valuable lessons about love, acceptance, and the true meaning of success.
Including a Grammy award-winning score, featuring much-loved hits ‘This Is Me,’ ‘A Million Dreams,’ and ‘The Greatest Show,’ The Greatest Showman has quickly cemented itself as a beloved modern musical classic.
