The world tour will see Jackman perform a new show with hit songs from The Greatest Showman, Les Misérables and more from Broadway and film, accompanied by a live orchestra.

Making a very special guest appearance on the Australian tour is actress and singer Keala Settle who will perform the Academy Award nominated and Golden Globe Award winning song This Is Me from The Greatest Showman and more.

President and CEO of TEG DAINTY, Paul Dainty said he was thrilled to be bringing the show to Australia.

“I am thrilled that Hugh is bringing his world tour and new show home to Australian audiences. Fans can expect to hear some of his greatest successes from stage and screen, including songs from The Greatest Showman, Les Misérables and other Broadway shows.”

The Grammy Award winning The Greatest Showman soundtrack has broken sales records the world over and earned the title of 2018’s best-selling album in the world. The album has reached multi-platinum status in multiple countries including Australia, the UK and America.

Joining Hugh Jackman on the tour will be actress and singer Keala Settle, the breakout star of 20th Century Fox’s, The Greatest Showman. The Hawaii native’s performance of the film’s Oscar-nominated song This Is Me became an explosive anthem of self-acceptance, propelling the soundtrack to the top of the charts worldwide.
