P.T. Barnum and America's Museum-Worthy Curiosities
in us as Neill Hartley brings to life master showman P.T. Barnum in this exciting and entertaining look at one of the most colorful and well-known personalities of all time, who brought high and low culture to all of America. In this immersive evening, explore the transformation of the American museum from curiosity cabinets to the museums we know today.
A brilliant and shameless promoter, Barnum gave the wise public of the 19th century shameless hucksterism, peerless spectacle, and everything in between – enough entertainment to earn the title “master showman” a dozen times over. Barnum weather accusations of fraud with the attitude that there was no such thing as bad press, and he became one of the richest men in America.
Audiences will watch Barnum’s fame grow through his American Museum, then share his crowning success: “The Greatest Show on Earth!” This is an event you won’t want to miss!
