Chinese State Circus

By October 2, 2017 Article

The internationally acclaimed Chinese State Circus is coming back, returning to its roots in an innovatively spectacular new production – “DYNASTY”.

Breathtaking in its simplicity, “DYNASTY” projects into a contemporary setting an art form that has thrilled audiences for more than 2,000 years where low-tech everyday objects are transformed into hi-tech acrobatic equipment. Hurtling porcelain jars…dynamically spinning plates…balancing upon gigantic pyramids of tables and chairs framed by the delicate strands of silk supporting cascading aerialists.

“Never has such excitement been generated in a theatre. The whole audience hangs breathless” Manchester Evening News

Stunning world class Chinese acrobats, aerial artistes and jugglers interact with the super-human physical skills and dexterity of the masters of martial arts – the legendary Shaolin Warriors.

The nonstop action from start to awesome finale as thrill follows thrill is set to a soaring musical score accompanied by the rhythmic beats of Chinese percussion.  Its outstanding acrobatic achievement that could until now could only be created video through special effects – yet performed live in front of an audience what seems impossible becomes a reality. It is what has earned the CHINESE STATE CIRCUS the accolade “incomparable”.

No gimmicks…no fakes…no retakes…quite simply…the incomparable Chinese State Circus.

“Absolutely amazing show! The skill and talent blew us all away, never seen anything like it. Will definitely come and see you all again”

“Had a great evening at the Chinese State Circus last night, can recommend it! The pictures do not do it justice as it’s all flashing lights and people jumping and climbing and falling and general running around… but they give you a flavour.”

“We just loved this, I was in awe … So beautiful and amazing to see. Honestly if anyone catches the Chinese state circus in town please please go!!!!! From start to finish it honestly was just wonderfully amazing!!! Our 3 year old was just blown away all I kept hearing was ‘wow’ and ‘beautiful’!!!
