Start practicing your vocal scales, because this summer Telford will be swaying in time to a singalong screening of feelgood musical The Greatest Showman – and where better to host it than in a big top tent?
As part of Telford’s 50th birthday celebrations, Oakengates Theatre @ The Place is moving to the QEII Fields In Trust Town Park Arena to present an extravaganza of entertainment, and movies don’t come more entertaining than this year’s hit Hugh Jackman-starring musical about the life of master showman P. T. Barnum.
The Greatest Showman tells the story of Barnum’s determination to create a circus spectacle that would be known across the world, gathering a motley troupe of extraordinary performers to change the face of entertainment.
Featuring a host of toe-tapping tunes, audiences will be able to follow a bouncing top hat on screen to keep in time with songs like the worldwide hit This Is Me.
So come and join us at the Telford Big Top for The Greatest Show On Earth!
This event is proudly sponsored by Telford Centre www.telfordshopping.co.uk
