Experience the new Circus Spectacular, Come Alive!, in London Come Alive! The Greatest Showman Circus Spectacular is the exciting new show that's set to premiere at London’s Earls Court on September 23, 2024, at the Empress Museum. The Story Come Alive! brings circus artistry and musical theatre together. Inspired by The Greatest Showman film, with songs by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, we're looking to the 2017 film for narrative cues. The story of The Greatest Showman follows P.T. Barnum, a visionary who rises from humble beginnings to create the world’s first circus. Inspired by the desire to provide for his family and celebrate uniqueness, Barnum assembles a diverse group of performers, showcasing their talents despite societal prejudice. The film explores themes of acceptance, self-discovery, and the pursuit of dreams, highlighting the importance of embracing individuality and creating a sense of belonging. Come Alive! promises a brand-new story but we think many of these themes will be included. More to come! The Music You'll be familiar with most of the music, as Come Alive! is set to feature The Greatest Showman's most beloved songs including 'This Is Me,' 'Rewrite the Stars,' 'A Million Dreams,' 'Tightrope,' and 'The Greatest Show'. The Creative Team Come Alive! features international circus talent, including Cirque de Demain Medal winners and Cirque du Soleil performers, alongside acclaimed artists from London’s West End. The production is led by Drama Desk Award-winning Creative Director Simon Hammerstein, co-founder of The Box and known for Usher's sold-out My Way Las Vegas residency and Queen of the Night. Hammerstein is supported by a skilled creative team, including Music Producer and Olivier Award nominee Matthew Brind (Paddington 2, Legally Blonde), Lead Choreographer Jerry Reeve (Taylor Swift), and Emmy-nominated Lighting Designer Adam Bassett (London 2012 Olympics). The musical duo Pasek and Paul are renowned for their contributions to musical theatre, including the Tony Award-winning Dear Evan Hansen, and they received a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for 'City of Stars' from La La Land, along with their impressive contribution to The Greatest Showman.
