Circo Acrobático de Hunan

Enjoy the Family Pack: from 4 tickets with 20% discount

Founded in 1959 in Hunan, southern China, this is considered one of the country's most important troupes. It has performed in over 50 countries and has received several awards, notably the "Silver Clown" at Monte Carlo.

The collection of acts being presented is evidence of the long tradition in Chinese acrobatic theatre, a stage discipline that promotes beauty and the simplicity of gesture.

Acrobatics is used to explore a limitless number of variations and permutations of the human body, which are used to embody gods and demons, characters that arise from a vast heritage of ancient legends.

The show, which is proudly sponsored by the Popular Republic Chinese Embassy, comprises 15 acts. Each act tells a different story and resorts to different acrobatic techniques related to ancient Chinese culture.

From mythical creatures to elegant dancers dancing with their lovers, the artists evoke ancient activities such as hunting or war, with particular attention paid to costumes and quality of image. This combination of acrobatics, traditional dancing and martial arts is extremely demanding both physically and mentally, given the complexity of the disciplines being used.

The 26 acrobats on stage – most of who have been training from the age of five – will demonstrate their unbeatable mastery in the art of balancing, juggling and contortionism, among others, making the Hunan Acrobatics Troupe one the most important in modern Chinese theatre.
