The Greatest Showman

This would make for quite the show. The greatest show, you might say.

As was reported a number of weeks ago, The Greatest Showman himself Hugh Jackman is coming to Ireland for a number of pop concerts next year.

He will play two nights in the 3Arena in May of 2019, and it is sure to be an amazing gig.

And although there are no confirmed supporting acts for the show, it looks like Jackman is setting his sights high regarding who he wants to join him.

In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter, he gave a few names that he would fancy touring with.

“I would love Pink to come and do ‘A Million Dreams’ with me. She sang it for The Greatest Showman’s Reimagined soundtrack.

“We’re actually going to be on tour at the same time in Europe, so I’d love for her to come and sing a little harmony for ‘A Million Dreams’ with me

“I’d also love to have Kelly Clarkson and Taron Egerton, who plays Elton John in Rocketman. He has a voice like you cannot believe. The original cast of Oklahoma!, I’d love to reunite with for the show’s 21st anniversary.

“James Corden, I’ve asked him if he’ll come on. He’d be so much fun! I would love to have them all come, and loads of other people.”

That’s right, he wants James Corden with him. We’re not sure what we think of that, but Jackman reckons it would make for a fun concert.
