Step right up and enter the dazzling world of P.T. Barnum, where imagination and ambition know no bounds.Hand in hand with wife Charity, Barnum’s life and career twists and turns as he schemes and dreams his way to headier heights.
West End favourite and TV star Lee Mead will take centre stage as the legendary 19th-century showman P.T. Barnum. Lee shot to stardom with his breakout win on Any Dream Will Do and acclaimed performances in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Wicked, and Legally Blonde.
This spectacular production, directed by Jonathan O’Boyle and choreographed by Oti Mabuse, features an extraordinary ensemble cast of over 20 actor-musicians, acrobats, and amazing circus acts. Audiences are certain to delight at every sight, wonder, and miracle that the name Barnum stands for!
Barnum first took the UK by storm when it played the London Palladium, with Michael Crawford making theatrical history with a death-defying nightly tightrope walk across the stage. And now, Lee Mead steps into Barnum’s shoes and onto the tightrope!
Come follow the band with the glorious music of multi-award-winning Cy Coleman, Michael Stewart’s lyrics, and Mark Bramble’s book.
Barnum features a whole host of classic show tunes, including "Join the Circus", "Colours of My Life", "Come Follow the Band" and "Love Makes Such Fools of Us All".
Directed by Jonathan O’Boyle
