Shanghai Acrobatic Troupe

If you haven't already, i strongly suggest catching this. Its worth every penny...

Cost: RMB 200 per head
Venue: Portman Ritz Carlton
Duration: 1.5 hrs of gasping

Here's a quick preview of the acts.

I called it the Balancing Contortionist ... U know how usually the contortionist just contorts, this one balances as well.


Flying Dramatic Duo. This is one of my favourites. A bit of drama coupled with gravity (and death) defying acts. Sorry the picture's a bit blur. Its a bit hard to catch the action when they are in mid-air.



Managed to record a video of one of the acts. I shd have been on video mode earlier. But then again if i do then there's no reason for you to go see them. I call this the Ong Bak act.







Okay lastly, the multiple handstand but on stacked chairs act...


Won't be surprise if some of these actors were potential Olympics Gymnasts, or dropouts for that matter.

Anyways, Lester's parents are in town for the week. We've been taking them around. Its been fun, will post more pictures of their trip once i get the time.
