Disclosure: My family and I were provided with free screening tickets in exchange for this honest review.
A few weekends ago we had the opportunity to attend a screening of “The Greatest Showman”. When I first saw this preview I knew it would be a movie I would have to see in the theater. I adore the idea of a musical movie and when I saw that the Award Winning Lyricists of La La Land was featured in The Greatest Showman I was so excited.
