When that doesn’t bring in audiences, he gets together unique and talented people to create a show like nothing that’s ever been seen before. He teams with wealthy playwright Phillip Carlyle, in order to appeal to the higher class. After they try to hide the troupe from the wealthy patrons,
the performers are hurt, but they decide to embrace who they are. Protesters continuously harass the troupe and eventually set fire to the circus theater. Barnum is saddened by how things have turned out, but his performers encourage him to pick himself up and make the show go on. Will Barnum be able to come back and CLIMB his way to accomplish his dream?
