All I knew about Water For Elephants was that it is a romantic drama set in a traveling circus during the Great Depression. I expected a circus with a rich color palette, beautiful costumes, acrobatics, and an elephant.

Nick Fradiani, who stars as Neil Diamond in A BEAUTIFUL NOISE: THE NEIL DIAMOND MUSICAL, will perform a bonus post-show concert of Diamond songs at Toronto's Princess of Wales Theatre, free with a ticket to the performance.
