The singers act more casual and "out of character" in these events, so the audience feels like they can see the "real" person.
*** Bravat's shows generally start with the four main dancers wearing large concealing cloaks? Ciel's have the dancers use bungee cords to swing onto the stage from the rafters, using cloaks to conceal the safety equipment.

** Then he increases profits even more by using Bravat's tactics (and prior knowledge of advertisement) to make his shows even more profitable.
*** Where Bravat used a small amount of AudienceParticipation to get the blood types of his victims and lure them into a trap, Ciel has the Phantomhive 5 go directly into the audience and interact with the people there (even selling toys for this specific purpose to the audience).
*** Where Bravat gave away free bracelets to customers to mark their blood type so they could be organized and drained properly, Ciel gave away glowsticks and handkerchiefs to be used during the performance.

** Chapter 122 goes further, with Ciel using [[ChekhovsSkill the same principal behind the tin-can telephones used in chapter 71]] to create rudimentary microphones in his music hall, allowing him to completely avert a very real problem faced by ''all'' professional performances in this era; how to gather the biggest crowd without making the audience so big that people in the back can't hear the performance.

** Chapter 123 reveals that this was just the tip of the iceberg. As it turns out, [[spoiler: Ciel had deduced that, for whatever reason the Sphere Music Hall group is gathering blood, the dead bodies they're hiding are being drained because they don't have enough. So, the whole development of his own music hall was to steal just enough of the crowds away that their blood supplies would dip, and they'd have to once again drain someone dry. And when they do, Sebastian is waiting there for the hall's goons at the body dump site, along with a photographer, exposing the whole thing]]. And when the goons [[ShootingSuperman try to shoot him]], Sebastian merely throws knives into their guns, blocking them, and then knocking them senseless.
