The Greatest Showman circus spectacular is now playing in Adelaide

  • Do
Come Alive! brings the iconic soundtrack to life with world-class circus acts, dazzling visuals and electrifying performances under a purpose-built Hippodrome at Morphettville.

If your family knows every word to This Is Me and has watched The Greatest Showman approximately seven thousand times, here’s your chance to experience those beloved songs live, loud and breathtakingly close.

Come Alive! The Greatest Showman Circus Spectacular has rolled into Adelaide and set up its purpose-built Hippodrome at Morphettville Racecourse. This all-ages production reimagines Benj Pasek and Justin Paul’s iconic soundtrack from the 20th Century Fox motion picture with world-class circus artistry, dazzling visuals and electrifying performances.

Adelaide is the third stop on the Australian tour, following sold-out runs in Sydney and Perth. Since its Australian premiere in May, Come Alive! has become a must-see favourite, bringing to life the anthems we all know and love, including This Is Me, Rewrite the Stars and A Million Dreams.

What to expect

This isn’t your average theatre show. Performed beneath a specially constructed Hippodrome, the production puts you right in the middle of the action. Think aerialists soaring overhead, acrobats defying gravity, and those goosebump-inducing songs performed live while circus acts weave through the story.

It’s the kind of show that will have your kids (and let’s be honest, you too) completely spellbound from start to finish.

Adelaide season details
