at the Montgomery County Cultural CenterCy Coelman's classic musical filled with juggleing, humor, and a live elephant.

Fran Doyle has directed the ensemble well, particularly,John, whose boundless energy makes the impetuous/implicity exploitive nature of his character quite believable and even enourmously likable.
In a wonderfully modulated performance, John Doyle, frames Barnum as a man standing om a tightrope and asking the rest of the world to join him there for his precarous balancing of American invention and fantasy.
Possibly, though, the main attraction looming under Montgomery County Cultural Center's Big top is the way in which the company forges as in=your-lap communion with its audience., as it simultaniously swabs up a poitrait of circus life being a world apart and then some....
Barnum is constantly on stage and Doyle handles the acting chores with confidence.
I can't Imagine any role beyond the grace and charm of this seasoned performer, (Marrietta Rizzone.) And what's even better is that her trained singing voice matches her accomplished acting.
becca Braglio and Kate McGrath are two vivascious ladies of the circus who will catch your eye with their irresistable animation.
