Los Angeles Business Journal (LABJ) Forum: Hollywood Du Soleil

Neighbors are hoping that Cirque du Soleil’s upcoming show at the Kodak Theatre will steer more customers their way. But some fear locals will avoid the area. So the Business Journal asks:

“Will Cirque’s new show at the Kodak be good for Hollywood in general?”

“In 1987, a visit to Los Angeles helped save a struggling Cirque du Soleil, so it is only fitting that the troupe attempts to return the favor. Hollywood has gone through an impressive redevelopment program with more shopping, dining and nightlife options than ever. What it still lacks is people. Cirque will provide a reason for both tourists and locals alike to discover or rediscover Hollywood.”
