Description:
Downtown Christiansburg Inc. (DCI) presents the final 2018 Movies in the Park featuring a free screening of "The Greatest Showman" on Friday, August 24, 2018 in Downtown Park in Christiansburg, VA.

"The Greatest Showman" is a 2017 biography, drama and musical rated PG that chronicles the life of P.T. Barnum and stars Hugh Jackman, Michelle Williams and Zac Efron.

Orphaned, penniless but ambitious and with a mind crammed with imagination and fresh ideas, the American Phineas Taylor Barnum will always be remembered as the man with the gift to effortlessly blur the line between reality and fiction. Thirsty for innovation and hungry for success, the son of a tailor will manage to open a wax museum, but will soon shift focus to the unique and peculiar, introducing extraordinary, never-seen-before live acts on the circus stage. Some will call Barnum's wide collection of oddities, a freak show; however, when the obsessed showman gambles everything on the opera singer Jenny Lind to appeal to a high-brow audience, he will somehow lose sight of the most important aspect of his life: his family. Will Barnum risk it all to be accepted?
