Performers Erupted into Song and Dance in London’s Covent Garden to Celebrate the release of THE GREATEST SHOWMAN


20 December 2017

London’s Covent Garden came alive with the spectacle of THE GREATEST SHOWMAN as performers erupted into song and dance in celebration of the film’s forthcoming release. The group surprised and entertained passing shoppers and drew large crowds as they spilled out onto the iconic piazza and performed two of the film’s leading tracks; Golden Globe nominated ‘This Is Me’ and ‘The Greatest Show’.

The original soundtrack for THE GREATEST SHOWMAN is written by Academy and Tony Award-winners Benj Pasek and Justin Paul (La La Land, Dear Evan Hansen). 'The Greatest Show' is led by Hugh Jackman's soaring vocal in the movie musical, with Broadway star Keala Settle bringing 'This Is Me' to life.

 

 

Joining the fun were BRIT School graduates Ashley Glazebrook and Glen Murphy, better known as Twist and Pulse, who cite THE GREATEST SHOWMAN as "one of our favourite films EVER" and have previously created their own interpretation of the dance to 'This Is Me'. The professional dancers/presenters, who have toured the UK and Ireland extensively and amassed 1.1 million followers online, abandoned their Christmas shopping to add their signature 'streetomedy' moves to some of the day's performances.

All the action was captured on video and in celebration of next week's Boxing Day release, Twentieth Century Fox have today made the footage available.

 

 

THE GREATEST SHOWMAN stars Academy Award nominees Hugh Jackman and Michelle Williams with Zac Efron, Zendaya and Rebecca Ferguson. The film is directed by Michael Gracey and showcases original music from Academy Award and Tony Award winners Benj Pasek and Justin Paul.
