Chinese acrobatic art has its own features. The performance is deceptive, so the requirements for lighting is much more stricter than for opera. A successful acrobatic show also requires beautiful clothing. Costumes further enhance the beauty of the performance and increase the visual effects. This kind of art is still what it was centuries ago in that it does not overemphasize the role of music.
Performers pay more attention to the action, and the music perfectly coincides with the performance. The high level acrobatic program requires excellent technique coaching and extensive preparation time. When you watch a Chinese acrobatics show, you will be strongly impacted both mentally and physically. It is truly an unforgettable experience.
At present, Chinese acrobatics have developed into a kind of performance art. There are over 122 acrobatic teams above the county level in China, and Chinese acrobatics have won praise from audiences both at home and abroad along with gold medals in World Acrobatic Festivals in recent years. In the Beijing area, there is a famous theater where you watch acrobatics and other programs of entertainment.
Top acrobatic artists are invited from all over the country and the program shows trick cycling, leaping through hoops and Chinese magic tricks. Some of the artists have won prizes in international competitions. Spinning plates, juggling umbrellas, contortionists and acrobats fill the air. Finally, your Chinese driver will transfer you back to your hotel after show.

The Beijing guide and driver will hold your name on a card and pick you up at the hotel lobby at 18:20pm, then drive to Red Theater directly. The 52 strong team features a cast of young Kung Fu practitioners, dancers, and acrobats, all of them professional performers from 14 cities in China. The performers are not only skilled in Kung Fu martial arts, but are also trained in modern dance presentation.
The inspiring story of a young boy seeking enlightenment skilfully combines traditional martial arts with dance, ballet and acrobatics. The story started when the young Chun Yi was brought by his mother to the temple to start his apprenticeship to become a monk. At first he found it difficult to experience the strict discipline. At his initiation he was given the name "Chun Yi".
He studied hard, and collected vital life energy from heaven and earth. He learned to look to nature and the movements of animals. Furthermore, the Master warned him that truth could easily be seduced by ego. Chun Yi had a new-found power, and was distracted from the purity of the Buddhist life. He shunned those who were close to him, unprepared for the life he now knew and followed religiously.
Deeply remorseful, Chun Yi practiced meditation and was now truly ready to become a warrior monk, not for violence, but for peace. Several years later, his wise old Master prepared for the end of his life. Chun Yi went back to the temple where the Master passed on to him the role of Temple Abbott.
Afterwards, the driver will take you back to your hotel.
