    Fun family show

    by BB on 10/18/23Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee

    Kids had a blast and enjoyed all of the show. Good mixture of music, suspense, dancing, comedy etc. Recommend if you have younger kids.

    It’s not what it used to be

    by Nikki on 10/18/23Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee

    There is no more ring leader/master … there’s just this horrible actress that sings a ton with overdone facial expressions reminiscent of Chicago’s Eagle a man commercials. The clowns… they’re gone. Now it’s a guy in a man bun and a couple of guys in glitter. But they don’t interact much or clown much. It felt like the wish version of cirque du soleil. But with twerking. Lots of twerking with a “main” center stage act. A Diamond group … they twerked. The trapeze were neat to see. The tight rope act was reduced to a small square and again - not great. If you like horrible acting, twerking, and bad ballet - this is for you. It’s not what it was and we definitely overpaid. I wouldn’t go back.

    Great for all ages

    by Lexi on 10/18/23Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee

    Was wondering how it would be since they no longer have animals. There were so many cool cultural performances and stunts. Loved it!

    Greatest Show On Earth- LITERALLY!

    by seymore on 10/17/23Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee

    I was hesitant at first on how this would be a good show without live animals, clowns and the traditional acts that usually came with Ringley Brothers circus...BOY was I wrong! The lighting, music, pyrotech, smoke, stage layout and sound was awesome! Having some modern acts like incorporating the BMW bikes and special dancers and the walking wheel were phenomenal! Loved how they involved the crowd and kept things moving. Definitely the Greatest Show On Earth, really enjoyed it!

    THE Greatest Show

    by JenniferW1970 on 10/17/23Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee

    WOW! What an amazing show. The action never stops. Just when you think you’ve seen it all, something else is happening on the other side of the stage. The souvenirs are a “wee” bit pricey, but the show itself is worth every penny. Every adult and child had a smile, and was full of joy for just a little while.

    Disappointed

    by Aluce on 10/17/23Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee

    Well the show was great, My grandkids loved it. But unfortunately one if the concession stand that was selling the swords that lights up and send out bubbles. The man told me the cost was 20.00 dollars per sword. He asked me did I want a receipt. I told him no thinking he was going to charge me correctly. He charged me 70.00 for 2 swords when it only should had been 40.00. At this time I'm fighting that charge. How come someone can be so unfaithful when this even supposed to be excited for kids.

    Just ok.

    by RKZAE on 10/17/23Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee

    I can’t believe the price I paid for this event. I was unimpressed, kids were unimpressed. Not the greatest show on Earth like they advertise. I had high hopes, but not pleased.

    RBBB is moving in the right direction!

    by David in Milwaukee on 10/17/23Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee

    Congratulations RBBB! After decades af lackluster and check-the-box shows, you're finally getting it. Guess it took something like going out-of-business to force some real change. Hands-down the best performance you've done in years. Still trying a bit too hard, however, to follow the American circus model that died in the 1970's (big, loud, busy, and garish). I appreciate the focus on high production values, artistry, and traditional acts. Also loved that you left the merchandise in the lobby to minimize hard-sell during the show. Still feels like a kiddie show in some respects and would instantly be improved by eliminating the sing-along. Clowns need some feature spots! Re-open Clown College next! Didn't understand the validity of some questions in the follow-up survey. Yes, please ask if I liked the show or whether parking was available. Those are valid business metrics. No, don't ask if I appreciate the 'diversity' of the cast or if my kid felt 'empowered' by the performance. That's virtue-signaling.   Not sure if parents are going to pay Cirque prices for a kid ticket - but I'm rooting for you!

    A must for the whole family!!

    by Berber716 on 10/17/23Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee

    Absolutely fabulous show!!! It was very family friendly. There wasn’t a bad seat as there was so much going on in the entire stadium. We will definitely be going it again when they come back through!!

    Disappointed

    by Tia on 10/16/23Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee

    I brought children of all ages to the circus; in which, was a disappointment to the to my toddlers because it didn't hold their attention. The show was for the older children. I knew there would not be animals. However, I did expect to see at least a clown. ALL OF THE ACTs were the same. I wouldn't recommend this so called circus. I feel like it was a waste of money.

    Greatest

    by Grandpa Fred on 10/16/23Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee

    Unbelievably spectacular. Such talent on a grand scale. I have seen many circuses over my 82 years but nothing has ever come close to this. It is visually stunning and includes as many different acts as could be imagined. Congratulations to all involved in bringing this show to Milwaukee and the rest of the country.

    An amazing show

    by Kiwi on 10/16/23Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee

    I was doubtful going with no animals, but was shocked at the amazing show. This is what Ringling Brothers should be.

    Loved it, fantastic!

    by Best show! on 10/16/23Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee

    This show was amazing. Kept us entertained and on the edge of our seats the whole time. My 10 year old LOVED it and wants to go again. The acts were phenomenal.

    The show must go on

    by Coleyclaas on 10/16/23Fiserv Forum - Milwaukee

    Took my kids to see this show and they are 10 and 13. Definitely different from the circus that I grew up going to since no live animals are allowed. Lots of acrobatics and cheesy humor. Not bad for the price of the tickets.

    Great show

    by P. F. on 10/15/23

    The show was great. I didn’t miss the animals and the kid behind me made watching the show even greater. He really enjoyed the show and that made me even more excited.

    Fun and Stimulating Show

    by Jiff on 10/6/23Brookshire Grocery Arena - Bossier City

    The circus was very exciting and brought back childhood memories. Every part of the show had my attention: fun aerobic and amazing performance, even with the replacement of the animal; the spirit of Ringling Bro lives on.
