Hosted by the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the State Council of P.R. China, and supported by the Consulate-General of the People’s Republic of China in Sydney,Nan Hai Culture and Media (Australia) Pty Ltd.,the Australian Chinese Performing Artist’s Association and Australian Council of Chinese Organisations Inc. Present you a grand performance tour “Cultures of China, Festival of Spring”, which has been successfully held in more than 30 major countries to celebrate Chinese New Year and to promote cultural communication and exchange. This Chinese Acrobatic Spectacular will officially open in Sydney at the Sydney Entertainment Centre on Thursday 9 February 2012. Founded in 1951, the Guangdong Acrobatic Troupe of China is China’s foremost acrobatic company. Renowned throughout the world, the Troupe astounds audiences with its astonishing productions which push imagination, physicality and technology to their limits in its electrifying presentations of traditional Chinese folk acrobatics within a dynamic modern perspective. Their extraordinary reinterpretation of ‘Swan Lake’ has taken the world by storm since its premier - gold in Monte Carlo and at the China Acrobatics Competition. The performance includes scenes in which the White Swan dances en pointe on top of the Prince’s head and shoulders, and another in which the famous dance of the four little swans is transformed into a performance of four little frogs, played by men – who do the entire dance on their arms. Pole balancing, jumping through fire hoops, rope walking, ball walking and jujitsu are all seamlessly woven into the story, and there is a constant blurring of performance styles, including not only ballet and acrobatics, but also elements of Peking Opera. The Troupe has recently performed at The London Coliseum and gathered stunning reviews. Time: 7:30pm Please contact the venue for details.
