Disney's iconic take on the Hugh Jackman starring P.T. Barnum tale will be adapted into an on-stage musical.
The news came at D23, a three-day event for fans of everything Disney . At a Friday panel on the entertainment monolith’s musical theater plans, after announcements of new Frozen stage show dates and a West End adaptation of the company’s animated Hercules film, “the iconic howl from the 2017 movie musical sounded across the arena,” Variety reports.
Typically, stage shows produced by that division end up on Broadway: past productions include the currently running Aladdin and The Lion King adaptations, as well as 2018’s Frozen show. Dates or a destination for the Showman show were not revealed on Friday, but Page Six appears to have a clue, reporting Saturday that the production will land first in the southwest England town of Bristol “in early 2026” and then will “play the Theatre Royal Drury Lane in London.
