Cast Explores Circus Roots

The cast of Broadway’s “Water for Elephants” took a behind-the-scenes field trip to Circus World Museum in Baraboo, diving into the real-life roots of their circus-themed musical—complete with animatronics, acrobatics, and history straight from the big top. With many actors having circus backgrounds, the visit was both inspiring and immersive, offering a rare backstage glimpse into how the show’s spectacle comes to life. Running now through Sunday at the Overture Center, this is theater that truly rolls out the red carpet—and the ringmaster’s whip.
