Now appearing at the
New Shanghai Theatre, 645 State Highway 165, just south of Hwy 76 between the
Shake It Up Showplace (formerly The Ain't Misbehaving Theatre) and
Coffelt Country.
In its
13th season in Branson (2010), the
Acrobats of China celebrate the exotic wonders of
China with a fast-paced, exciting production with
beautiful backdrops,
state-of-the-art lighting and
beautifully designed costumes.
The Theatre was
invested in and
built by parties from
China and the United States, and it is managed by Chinese staff independently. With its
unique style of modern
Chinese architecture, the theatre has
1000 seats and features
modern lighting and sound equipment.
The
stage is of the most popular
widescreen design. The
outside walls of the theater are decorated with blossomed
flowers and cascading
waterfalls. Beside the
waterfall are huge
posters of the show. In the center of the parterre is a
bronze ware of more than 2 meters high from
Xi'an, exhibiting the unique visual enchantment of eastern culture.
You'll see elegant
eastern dance, dazzling acrobatics, mysterious magic, mystical music, and more.
