Unfortunate

I've seen O (my favorite), Mystere, Ka, Love, Dralion, and Allegria.  Now Cirque du Soleil is filing for bankruptcy:
In a move that would have been unheard of even a year ago, Cirque du Soleil, the Las Vegas Strip’s preeminent production company for more than two decades, has filed for bankruptcy protection.
This is a big deal, especially in Las Vegas:
Alas, so far there has been no specified strategy from the company for when, how or even if all of its shows will reopen on the Strip. Prior to its bankruptcy, Cirque's multiple permanent Las Vegas shows alone played to more than 9,000 people a night, 5% of the city's visitors, adding to the over 100 million people who have seen Cirque du Soleil productions worldwide.
They shut down because of the 'rona.
