This 2,000 year-old tradition of acrobatics includes daring maneuvers atop a precarious pagoda of chairs; treacherous wire walking; a trick cycling kaleidoscope of magnificent movement; powerful precision tumbling, somersaulting and gymnastics; amazing displays of contortion, flexibility and control- all this and more describes the performance offered by The Peking Acrobats from the People's Republic of China.
With the festive pageantry of a Chinese carnival, exciting new acts, and new twists on old favorites, The Peking Acrobats return to Marin Center, presenting a matinee performance for all ages during their 25th anniversary season.
"Amazing! Zounds! The vocabulary of exclamation seeks expression as the medium of awed and surprised reaction to the wondrous feats of The Peking Acrobats! In their graceful efforts...these brightly costumed tumblers, acrobats, cyclists, jugglers and clever clowns provide 90 minutes of family fun that infuses springtime in New York with an extra measure of joy." -New York Times
