    Mediocre

    by Grandma on 2/25/24Barclays Center - Brooklyn

    My Grandson was disappointed that there were no animals and no dirt bikes. He went to Universoul Circus and thought that was a better show.

    (Really?) The Greatest Show On Earth

    by Mr. Brooklyn on 2/25/24Barclays Center - Brooklyn

    My family of 4 had a great time. My 13 year old was entertained but thought the intermission was not necessary. My 6 year old loved the show but was starting to get restless just before the intermission. The person shot out of the cannon was the highlight. Otherwise, most of the show feels like a live 2 hour version of America’s Got Talent. The robot dog was a favorite too. As an adult, this did not feel like a spectacle and there was never anything that felt dangerous or suspenseful. At the end my 6 year old sincerely asked: “Is this really the greatest show on earth?”

    Not what it used to be.

    by Lion on 2/25/24Barclays Center - Brooklyn

    The lack of clowns and animals makes the show look like a bad half time act. Some performers are very good, but not enough to save the show. They need to go back to what makes a circus a magical experiance. If they don't change back they will not make it.

    Ringling family time

    by Gwen on 2/24/24Wells Fargo Center - Philadelphia

    It was a good show but my family and friends missed seeing any animals as part of the experience.

    This was not the circus

    by Kay on 2/23/24

    At best this is a tumbling act with some random singing of some classic songs. No more clowns. No more makeup and wigs. No more animals. Go if you want to see fancy gymnastics & tumbling. At the end there is a lady flying out of a rocket and they still have tight rope walkers. That's about all you'll see if what was.

    Exponentially better than expected

    by DB on 2/23/24Wells Fargo Center - Philadelphia

    Not sure what I expected, but this show was absolute incredible. I took my family with two boys (12 and 6), and our exchange student from Germany (16), and all of us were on the edge of our seats the entire time. It’s like Cirque du Soliel but with zero slow moments, less storyline for the kids to get bored by, and the acrobatics on steroids. Incredible performance and absolutely plan to go again when able.

    Incredibly Awesome!

    by Judy Shappell on 2/22/24Wells Fargo Center - Philadelphia

    After attending over 50 years of the Ringling Brothers, Barnum and Bailey circus, I was a little apprehensive. The performers were supurb, the lighting and graphics were amazing and the variety of entertainment kept me on the edge of my seat. Kudos to the "Re-imagined Circus".

    Truly the greatest on earth

    by BenP on 2/22/24Wells Fargo Center - Philadelphia

    I took our 3 toddlers (6, 4, 3) to this with my wife and another family. We were absolutely mesmerized the entire time. The toddlers had the best time and so did we! I can not recommend highly enough the Ringling Brothers show. It was/is the greatest. I wanted to go again before it left our city but couldn't.

    NOT A CIRCUS!!!

    by Ddub on 2/22/24Wells Fargo Center - Philadelphia

    NOT A CIRCUS! Good for what it is now but not what it used to be even a little bit. There are elements of Circus in it but overall there were no Clowns, No Sphere of death motorcycles, the tightrope was a 3 tight rope triangle that may have been 10-20 feet long, the human cannon launched from about half court and straight up into the air into a blow up bag which was very anticlimactic. Not even close to sold out which meant that the venue didn't support the show very well at all. Concessions were limited at best on the main concourse and almost non-existent on the upper level. Upper level views were obstructed by the lighting being hung too low to the floor. Overall a very disappointing experience overall and totally not worth the amount of money for tickets.

    Exciting

    Boring with out the animals

    by Disappointed on 2/22/24Wells Fargo Center - Philadelphia

    This show is awful with out the presence of the elephants and other animals. Although, the performers were highly skilled and professionals it was just not the same with out the animals. Not to mention there wasn't any clowns either. The robodog was just terrible. If I could give it zero stars I would. The show was very boring and repetitive. Will not go back.

    Fun but not the circus I knew

    by Marc on 2/22/24Wells Fargo Center - Philadelphia

    Brought our 2 5+ year old grandsons. They seemed to be entertained. Sadly though this really isn't the circus as I knew it. No animals. No clowns. Lots of acrobatics which were great but too much. Send in the clowns.

    Great Show!

    by Oops on 2/22/24Wells Fargo Center - Philadelphia

    The show was amazingly entertaining. My whole family (with 3 tweens/teenagers) smiled and laughed the whole show. It was so great, my kids wanted to go again the following day! Would definitely recommend it!

    Definitely NOT The Greatest Show On Earth!

    by BT on 2/22/24Wells Fargo Center - Philadelphia

    This was a very lame show and not worth the money.
