Animals, clowns and acrobats! Oh my!
Print Edition
The Shanghai Acrobatic TroupeÕs ÒHappy CircusÓ is fun for the whole family.
The regular show features clowns, a variety of animals and multi-media stage effects to entertain children. The clowns have been trained by Russian professionals while well-known composers have written scores for the show.
During the 90-minute performance, animals such as dogs, monkeys, bears, lions, tigers, sea lions, horses and parrots will perform various tricks. The clowns will also invite viewers to help them with a mime performance. Veteran acrobats will perform a variety of stunts.
Shanghai Acrobatic Troupe member Dai Yuehua has more than 30 years of experience in animal taming. He says they present around 200 performances a year.
ÒIt is a good chance for children living in a big city to get close to animals and spend quality time with their parents,Ó Dai says. ÒWe have also done charity performances for children from poverty-stricken families. It is important to nurture Chinese audiences in the circus art.Ó
The show has won acclaim from both parents and children.
Neo Qiu, a father of a 3-year-old child, says his son loves the animals. ÒHe was very excited about petting the horses and dogs after the show,Ó Qiu says. ÒOutside of the zoo we donÕt have much chance to interact with animals. This show fills the void.Ó
