ONLY THREE MORE DAYS TO SEE BARNUM THE MUSICAL AT FOOTLIGHTERS THEATER! DON'T MISS IT!

Do Not Delay!  BARNUM the Circus Musical has been wowing audiences for three weeks and YOU only have three more chances to share in the fun! 

Local theater-lovers have been flocking to the historic Berwyn theater in droves.  BARNUM is an uplifting and energetic musical look into the life of P.T. Barnum, the famous Master of Humbug (masterfully portrayed by Irish tenor, Danny Scott) and his devoted wife, Charity (Andi Rose).  Stage Magazine reports that the spirit of P.T. Barnum is reflected in the energy, detail, and brilliant colors put into this delightful production.  Taylor Barnum will introduce you to Jumbo the Elephant, Jenny Lind the "Swedish Nightingale" (Collette Anderson), the famous "little man" General Tom Thumb (teen Dylan Delaney), Joice Heth, the “oldest woman in the world” (Kim Simmons) and many more.  Barnum’s remarkable story of success and failure is combined with “stuck-in-your-head” memorable songs to provide a one-of-a kind production, unlike any musical you may have ever seen. 

Stage Magazine reviewer Lisa Panzer reports that BARNUM will have your toes tapping and eyes tearing up.”
