More acrobatics, less clowning around

I was very disappointed in this show. First, when I ordered the tickets during the pre-sale it was not clear how the stage would be set up. I ordered best available (and I did order on the very first day) and my seats were on the side. I was pretty happy about that until I realized that I was looking at the side of the stage. I feel like i was missing something beause the actors played to the front, not to the sides. I was also disappointed because the acrobatics were great, but i did not pay $72.00 per person to see a bunch of clowns filling in the time gaps. I do understand that the acrobats may need time for a costume change or a bathroom break, but the show started with the trapeeze, and then, these clowns came out for just as long as the trapeze artist was swinging around. I think that the clown acts literally took up half the show time. And, I honestly didnt get the point of the clown waiting for the train in the blizzard. How did that fit into the theme of the show? I feel that some of the acts were extremely subpar for Cirque Du Soleil such as the juggling. Juggling is neat the first time you see it. But I have been around for quite a while, and at this point unless you are juggling running chainsaws, you can leave the juggling out. Juggling ten balls just doesnt do it for me, even if you are standing on your head. I literally felt more entertained at the hibachi grill I went to after the show.
