I always thought of Cirque de Soleil as a more of an adult show? No? Not that there is adult content, but I had the impression that they are marketed towards entertaining adults. Do they market to families as well?
Ringling Bros always were a thing to bring your kids to, they were always marketed primarily towards children. I can totally see an adult couple going to Cirque de Soleil, I can't really see an adult couple going to Ringling Bros without children.
I may be way off base here.
Wild animals appeal mostly to children. I gotta agree though, animal acts are totally outdated. Especially now.
For Cirque, I think it was a business decision but also a different market than Ringling Bros.

- ryanbrunner 10y agoI would say that cirque markets itself to both adults and families, while Ringling Bros. and traditional circuses market themselves solely to families. We took our 3 year old to Cirque and he was talking about it for days. There's plenty of packages / concessions / etc. when you go to a Cirque show that are obviously targeted at kids.
- nommm-nommm 10y agoThat's awesome they do both. I only ever even heard of them as an adult so I didn't know. (I wanted to go to a show but my other half vetoed....)
