Chinese State Circus heads for Wolverhampton Civic Hall

The incomparable Chinese State Circus will present their UK premiere, Yin Yang, at Wolverhampton Civic Hall in Wolverhampton on Tuesday 24th and Wednesday 25th April, 2012.

The return of China's greatest circus features the first UK appearance of the formidable Shaolin Master known only as "The One", sourced specifically by director Phillip Gandey.

Witness acrobats defying gravity as the ancient discipline 'Icarian Games' returns to centre stage. An act rarely seen in circus arts, steeped in tradition, this remarkable display of human juggling sees the human body becomes catapult and catcher in an elaborate, explosive and highly choreographed presentation of power, poise and agility.

The show features traditional Chinese acts with the amazing legendary 'Bicycle Act' which will keep the audience on the edge of their seats as 12 artistes manoeuvre on to a single bicycle.

Witness the unpredictable and exhilarating twists of foot juggling with drums, the famous swinging poles, the sensational contortionist and the dynamic hoop divers with their amazing somersaults, leaps and jumps which all go towards completing this action-packed programme.

Act flows into act without narrative and it is all accompanied by a captivating and atmospheric all-girl group of live musicians.
