NATIONAL CHINESE ACROBATS @ Sony Centre for the Performing Arts, Toronto, ON - Sat May 12th!

Sony Centre For The Performing Arts

Proudly Presents

NATIONAL CHINESE ACROBATS

with the KITCHENER-WATERLOO SYMPHONY

OPENS THIS SATURDAY FOR TWO SHOWS ONLY!

On Saturday, May 12, Toronto will experience history in the making as China’s world-renowned Hunan Acrobatic Troupe join the critically acclaimed Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony in a groundbreaking world premiere performance. With over 30 Chinese performers and a full symphony orchestra, NATIONAL CHINESE ACROBATS will present an unforgettable performance that will both mesmerize and mystify with the best in Chinese arts, illusion, acrobatics, music, dance, and drama, in a thrilling display of artistry and collaboration.

In support of the Sony Centre’s diversity mandate, NATIONAL CHINESE ACROBATS is an exciting Canada-China cultural exchange between the Hunan Acrobatic Troupe, the Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony and the Sony Centre For The Performing Arts. For the first time since its doors opened, the Sony Centre facilitated this new creative collaboration, the first of its kind between a Chinese Acrobatic Troupe and a Western Symphony.

Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony Assistant Conductor Evan Mitchell has put together a musical programme that includes Verdi, Mozart and Mendelssohn with which the Hunan Acrobatic Troupe will perform dazzling feats, daredevil maneuvers, and breathtaking balancing acts. The entire range of Chinese circus acts will be on display including martial arts, contortion, silks, and the perennial favourite, plate spinning.

SONY CENTRE FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS, Toronto’s first performing arts centre, has played a defining role in the cultural life of Toronto for more than 50 years. Today, the newly renovated Sony Centre is home to a roster of national and international artists that reflect the diversity and sophistication of 21st century Toronto. In addition, the Sony Centre is dedicated to developing Toronto’s younger audiences through family programming, workshops targeted towards school-aged audiences, an under-30 membership program, and other community initiatives including an international culinary experience. www.sonycentre.ca
