It really was a great show

Rating: 8/10 (23 September 2018)

Growing up I had seen the musical Barnum. So I expected it to be like that. It really was much better. I loved Hugh Jackman as Barnum.i would have loved to see and hear more from Keala Settle. She was a great bearded lady with a great voice.
The thing I didn't like - and the reason it didn't get 10 stars - the volume. I loved the singing. It was loud and clear and made you feel like you were part of the show. But the in between parts. Where people were talking were so damn soft I had to strain to hear and understand it. I never even knew who Zac Efrons character was until I read about it in the credits.
Even out the volume for the cd release and you've got a winner.
