‘COME ALIVE!’ The Greatest Showman Circus Spectacular has announced a fourth extension to its London run, continuing to dazzle audiences at the Empress Museum in Earls Court until September 2026. The show has also confirmed a host of talented new performers who will join the cast this autumn, adding fresh energy to the already acclaimed production.
The announcement comes just ahead of the show's one-year anniversary and a new Halloween-themed special, ‘COME ALIVE!’… OR ‘DEAD!!’ The Greatest Showman Circus Spooktacular, which will run from October 22-31. Pre-sale tickets for the extended run will be available today, with general sale starting tomorrow.
Among the new cast members is Urdang graduate Anoushka Tandon-Sangar, who will make her professional debut in the lead role of ‘Max,’ a young circus enthusiast discovering her potential. She will be joined by international circus acts, including American aerialist Tara Talland, UK-born performer Ebony Gumbs, and Canadian acrobat Nathan Briscoe, who joins from Cirque du Soleil.
Taking over the role of the Ringmaster is Kai Hou, a Guinness World Record holder who has toured the world with Cirque du Soleil and other prestigious shows. The production also welcomes new singers, including Maia Hawkins and Greg Oliver, and new dancers such as Rachel Gardiner and Ethan Brenchley.
‘COME ALIVE!’ is a spectacular show that brings the world of The Greatest Showman to life, featuring hit songs from the film and a 700-capacity Big Top. The show is conceived and directed by the Drama Desk award-winning Creative Director Simon Hammerstein and features a creative team of industry veterans, including Olivier Award-nominated Music Producer Matthew Brind and choreographers Jerry Reeve and Lukas McFarlane.
