From performing daring maneuvers atop a pagoda of chairs to tumbling and displaying incredible flexibility and control, the Peking Acrobats will demonstrate their talents on the Herod Hall Auditorium stage at Northwestern Oklahoma State University on Wednesday, Jan. 23, at 7:30 p.m.
Individual tickets for the Northwest Oklahoma Concert Series are available on as “as available” basis at $15 for adults and $10 for students. Tickets purchased for the canceled Shangri-La Chinese Acrobats performance will be honored at the door.
The Peking Acrobats will showcase balancing feats with tremendous skill and ability. Live musicians also will display their talents by skillfully playing traditional Chinese instruments.
They have built a tremendous reputation over the years by performing on the daytime talk show “Ellen,” and also have been featured in the movie “Oceans 11.”
The reserved seating section at each concert will be held until five minutes prior to the performance.
Contact Dr. Irene Messoloras, chair of the Department of Fine Arts, at (580) 327-8692 or irmessoloras@nwosu.edu, to purchase tickets or pick them up at Holder Drug, the NWOSU Bookstore, Graceful Arts Center, Rialto or by calling (580) 327-8692.
