The Peking Acrobats® redefine Chinese acrobatics, dazzling audiences with daring chair stacks, trick-cycling, tumbling, juggling and gymnastics. Pushing human limits, they defy gravity through contortion, flexibility and control. Rooted in centuries of Chinese history and folk art, their performance is an opportunity to experience this rich tradition with the modern wonders of the 21st century. Accompanied by live musicians, traditional Chinese sounds blend with high-tech effects, creating a festive entertainment event.

“Pushing the envelope of human possibility. Pure artistry!” – The New York Post

Banner reads: "Oh, the choices you'll make!" A troupe of dancers in yellow and red outfits hold up one dancer with one leg extended. The photo is digitally placed in a large yellow "O" with an image of a school of fish underwater behind.
