The Greatest Showman is about P.T. Barnum as he created the famous Barnum Circus. It follows his struggles and triumphs and the birth of show business.

The movie stars Hugh Jackman and Zac Efron and features some really great song and dance numbers.

It will make a fantastic Broadway stage show, in my opinion. And, I guess I’m not the only one who feels that way because Disney is doing just that!

The Walt Disney Company announced that it is developing a stage musical based on the 2017 film! It will be produced by its Disney Theatrical division.

At the D23 event, a cast performed “The Greatest Show,” which is the signature song from the movie to kick off the announcement. No further information — including casting, a creative team, or dates — were announced.

Other Broadway adaptations include Aladdin, Frozen, Tarzan, Marry Poppins, and The Lion King. If you have ever visited Epcot during Festival of the Arts, you have surely seen some of the Broadway performers share songs from these shows.
