The tour girl has so much knowledge and I had such an amazing time learning some of the real stories behind the Greatest showman movie.
We read the museum would be accepting visitors from 11 - 3 on certain days and decided to drop by. We are so glad that we did! An excellent and entertaining source of Bridgeport lore. Ms O' Keefe was an awesome tour guide. A++
THe Barnum Museum is one of my favorite places in the greater Bridgeport area! The collection is really amazing.
