The Peking Acrobats | Wortham Center

Whether they’re performing daring maneuvers atop a precarious pagoda of chairs or displaying their technical prowess at trick-cycling, The Peking Acrobats push the limits of human ability, defying gravity with amazing displays of contortion, flexibility and control. Accompanied by live musicians playing traditional Chinese instruments, this time-honored tradition fuses Chinese music and awe-inspiring acrobatic feats with high-tech special effects to create an exuberant entertainment event with the festive pageantry of a Chinese carnival.
