The Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus will end the “The Greatest Show on Earth” in May, following a 146-year run of performances. Kenneth Feld, the chairman and CEO of Feld Entertainment, which owns the circus, told The Associated Press, declining attendance combined with high operating costs are among the reasons for closing.
