Plot Summary

Despite growing up poor in the early 1800's, P.T. Barnum is ready to make something of himself and prove to his wife's parents that he will become successful.

He is eager to create something much more mesmerizing. He goes around town and finds the most unique, interesting-looking people he can and puts them on display at his circus. The news of the "freak circus" spreads around town, sparking the interest of famous playwright Phillip Carlyle, who helps P.T. fulfill his dream by creating the most magnificent show on earth!
