These photos seem to be of a Chinese Acrobatic Show. I can’t guess where the show is, but it looks good and these photos go really well together.

They really go all out with this sort of thing. The performers will have rehearsed and rehearsed until they near perfection. The lighting and colouring is mesmerising. The costumes and stage settings are fantastic.

If you ever get the chance to see Chinese Acrobatics, don’t miss it!

Chinese acrobats are just fantastic. Check these guys out!

I’ve never seen Chinese acrobats live, but they are often on Chinese TV. They are extraordinarily talented and very popular with average Chinese people.

The Chinese love variety shows on TV, with comedy, singing, acrobatics and other acts. The quality of the acts is very high and I’ve never seen a mistake. They must train incredibly long hours to be able to do what they do.

Anyone out there seen Chinese acrobatics live?
