Join us for the second performance in our 2026-2027 Free Community Performance Series. Tickets are free and will be available on a first-come, first-served basis beginning February 5, 2027 @ 10 AM. Enjoy a night out with the family and celebrate the arts at NPAC!

The Peking Acrobats merge the rich, ancient folk-art tradition of Chinese acrobatics with the spectacle of a modern theatrical circus. Their gravity-defying performances include the dangerous climbing chair stack, contortionists, tumblers, and the spectacular Bicycle Pagoda. The New York Times raved that their feats “reach breathtaking heights of skill,” the Los Angeles Times called their show “virtually unbelievable,” and Dance Insider proclaimed, “It’s like watching Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon LIVE!”

Celebrating 36 years of entertainment in 2026, The Peking Acrobats have toured globally and have performed innovative symphony concerts with orchestras like the San Francisco Symphony and the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, and have appeared in popular media, including Nickelodeon’s Unfabulous, Ellen’s Really Big Show, and major films like Ocean’s 11 franchise. This tour promises their most memorable production to date, with gymnastics, balancing, and agility, all with beautiful costumes and high-tech special effects of festive pageantry.
