The nostalgia of attending a Ringling Bros circus was not met. The lack of animal attractions is certainly felt. There are no clowns. I felt that i was attending a live recording of America's Got Talent.
I didn’t enjoy the circus. My children were bored. The only part they liked was the motor bikes and drum set with the fire. It’s not the same without ANY animals….
Definitely not as exciting as I thought it was going to be the kids were not into it. Kids these days want to be on their tablets not watching people jump around like a bunch of silly gooses
My family really enjoyed all of the cool stunts and acrobatics. Miss having the animals incorporated in the cast but we understand.
Went into the show with no expectations as it has changed since I last saw when it included animals. The animals were definitely missed but they have done a great job keeping it a fun experience.
Disappointed to say the least. The show was underwhelming from a lack of variety. Almost the entire thing was singing (with really bad audio on my side of the stadium) and acrobatics. Don’t get me wrong, the people involved in the acrobatics were extremely talented and the tricks were impressive, but it was a whole lot of the same thing over and over. The clowns don’t look like clowns, the audio production was screwy, there were no animals (with good reason), no motorcycles or much of the fun flashiness you think of when you think “circus.” If I wanted to see 2 hours of acrobatic performance art and rather basic musical performance, I’d go see that, and I wouldn’t bring my 4 year old. It hardly kept mine or my partners attention, certainly can’t imagine children being very engaged and should be marketed as such. Likely will not attend again unless there’s a major revamp.
The circus now is more a musical with some whimsical acts. So much of the high wire acts. No clown, or fun things for younger children. I didn't expect animals, but I thought some of the content would be geared towards smaller age groups.
I will say that it was my fault for buying tickets to the circus - thinking there was going to be animals. I did not remember they were no longer part of the show which I understand. However advertising a circus without animals or what the standard used to be was disappointing. Show didnt keep my toddler engaged past intermission. The performers were very talented but it was more circus solei than ringling brothers.
Very well done. We enjoyed the entire show. Great transformation.
