Here's your first look at COME ALIVE! The Greatest Showman Circus Spectacular in London.
Performed in a purpose built 700-capacity Big Top, the show includes performances of all of Benj Pasek and Justin Paul’s hit songs from the 20th Century Fox Motion Picture including ‘This Is Me’, ‘Rewrite the Stars’, ‘A Million Dreams’, and more.
Heading the cast is West End sensation Simon Bailey (Moulin Rouge! The Musical), who will take on the role of a modern-day 'Showman.' He will be joined by Aaliya Mai, making her professional debut in the lead role of 'Max,' a reserved young roustabout raised in the circus. Max, with a group of misfit companions, is on a journey to uncover her true potential.
