FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Come Alive! The Greatest Showman Circus Spectacular
Come Alive! review – acrobatic spectacle squanders The Greatest Showman’s songs
5 / 10
These are copper-bottomed songs but there aren’t enough for a show that, at 100 minutes, is more than twice the length of the soundtrack. Some of them are done a disservice by becoming additional rinky-dink instrumentals. While creative director Simon Hammerstein has engineered a spirited experience, it lacks a knockout performance. You can’t help but notice that Keala Settle from the film is headlining a much cheaper musical elsewhere in town.
Come Alive! The Greatest Showman Circus Spectacular Review
8 / 10
The acrobat performers are next level in terms of talent. Featuring all the tricks you’d hope to see in a show, but reimagined in an ‘old circus style’ way - the show feels as much of its era as much as it does modern - lending itself to potentially becoming a timeless production that could easily be lifted and lowered onto a new plot. I continuously found myself on the edge of my seat as they performed nail-biting stunts. I don’t think I've been that engaged with a show in a long time
