Water for Elephants has become one of the standout new musicals introduced on Broadway in recent years. Based on the beloved novel by Sara Gruen, the story about a traveling circus and complicated relationships is making its way to The Paramount theatre in Seattle, Washington on Saturday 10th October 2026. The National Tour features Zachary Keller as Jacob Jankowski, Helen Krushinski as Marlena and Connor Sullivan as August, bringing the production's elaborate circus-themed staging including puppetry and aerial elements to life.

All of these elements work together to ensure that, as an audience member, you're fully engaged in the story telling in a way that not every production can deliver. Starring Zachary Keller as Jacob Jankowski, Helen Krushinski as Marlena and Connor Sullivan as August, this touring cast brings the story to life.
