‘Come Alive!’ The Greatest Showman Circus Spectacular Is Coming To Adelaide

Great news for musical fans: 'COME ALIVE!' The Greatest Showman Circus Spectacular is heading to Adelaide next month.

Taking over Morphettville Racecourse from Thursday 29 October to Saturday 5 December, this is the third stop on the production's Australian tour, having recently wowed Sydney and Perth audiences.

Performed beneath a purpose-built Hippodrome, this all-ages spectacular reimagines Benj Pasek and Justin Paul’s iconic soundtrack from the 20th Century Fox motion picture, which starred Australia's very own Hugh Jackman, like never before.

Drama Desk award-winning Creative Director Simon Hammerstein (Masquerade, a bold new immersive production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Phantom of the Opera; Usher’s sold-out ‘My Way’ Las Vegas Residency; and Queen of the Night) is behind the production, with the all-Australian cast of performers led by Des Flanagan (CATS, Moulin Rouge!) as The Showman and Ruby Clark (The Lord of the Rings) as Max.

"After an ongoing sell-out run in the UK, we have been thrilled to see Australian audiences so warmly and enthusiastically embrace COME ALIVE!" says David Hutchinson, CEO of The Path Entertainment Group. "We look forward to taking the show to Adelaide for the next stop on our national tour after being so warmly welcomed by fans new and old in both Sydney and Perth."
