I believe the circus performers were actually trained professionals. From the Flying Fruit Fly Circus I believe.

@actsforlife321 yeh, they were from a circus specialty high school in albury

[MrAlltheworldsastage]

Was this an amature production?

[kle0001]

@MrAlltheworldsastage yes, but only in the sense that the cast weren't paid as it was done by school students

this is a Performing Arts type of High School...not your average High School production.

[Pisces31660]

clearly a HS production but they must have SOME HUGE budget in the theatre department.. the set, costumes and orchestra is not your typical HS production.

I was in Barnum my senior year in high school. It totally rocked the house, as we used to say back then. Thanks for bringing the memories back.

Thank you for posting all these Barnum clips; Many years ago I saw Barnum on Bravo TV Channel with Michael Crawford and then in Atlantic City, New Jersey in a Live peformance. Nothing beats the thrill of being there in person to see this show. Your performance was great and also the other cast members.

@kle0001 this production is amazing! it's hard for me to believe that the actors are high school students.
