Acrobatic Show at Shanghai Centre

Shanghai Centre Theatre has top-notch facilities and is home to the world famous "Shanghai Acrobatic Troupe". Founded in 1951, the acrobatic ensemble is the oldest in Shanghai. This is the most polished and popular acrobatic performance in the city, with a wide variety of stunning acts.

As the troupe with the most experience, the show has always stayed on the cutting-edge of Chinese acrobatics. After animal acts were banned in China the group moved on to the luxurious Shanghai Centre stage with an improved show in 2005 which continues to evolve to this day.

This spectacle managed to retain it's traditional flavor through a captivating story, while presenting some of the most modern and extreme acrobatic feats. Lasting an hour and a half, it was captivating entertainment and kept the audience glued to their seats until the very end.

The stunts were world class and ranged from anything between contorsionist acts to comic relief. Even the audience had a chance to partake in the show.
