Third and final presentation in our Amazing Tales in CT series with Mike Allen!
PT Barnum: The Greatest Showman on Earth
Please join noted storyteller and former journalist Mike Allen as he narrates amazing tales about people, places, and events from Connecticut History.
There’s been a lot written about the great showman PT Barnum. However, not much of it focuses on his upbringing in hometown of Bethel, CT.
In the final installment on the series, Bethel Town Historian, Pat Wild and Danbury Museum and Historical Executive Director, Brigid Guertin, share some great stories that help us understand the particular influences that affected Barnum the most growing up. They’ll even talk about the time he spent in jail! A must listen for any fan of PT Barnum.
Livestream from home, or view the livestream in the Atwater Memorial Library’s Community Room!
