The Greatest Showman Theatre Breaks
This year The Greatest Showman Theatre Breaks come to London and the Big Top at the Empress Museum. Make sure you see this high energy homage to the much loved Hollywood musical The Greatest Showman. Come Alive, The Greatest Showman Circus Spectacular is a brand new story set in the Showman Universe, featuring all the smash hits made famous by the original film: including ‘This Is Me’, ‘Rewrite the Stars’, ‘A Million Dreams’, ‘Tightrope’ and ‘The Greatest Show’.
‘COME ALIVE!’ features the finest international circus stars (Cirque de Demain Medal Winners, Cirque du Soleil) and musical theatre talent from all across the West End.
But the show starts before the curtain goes up. So make sure that you don’t miss the interactive pre-show, with close-up performances, curious characters and the chance to savour delicious food and drink.
As Come Alive starts, take your seats in the amazing 700-seat Big Top where circus meets musical theatre in an epic spectacular featuring a brand-new story inspired by the 20th Century Fox Motion Picture and featuring all the hit songs by Pasek and Paul, creating a Greatest Showman musical extravaganza.
Simon Bailey stars as the Showman. He comes straight from Moulin Rouge at the Piccadilly Theatre. You will also have seen him starring West End shows including Les Miserable and Heathers, The Phantom of the Opera and We Will Rock You.
Opposite Simon and making her professional debut Come Alive! Beyond the stage, is singer/songwriter Aaliya Mai.
The Creative Director of the show and the brains behind this amazing evening is Drama Desk award-winning Creative Director Simon Hammerstein – grandson of Oscar Hammerstein II
