CHINOOK WINDS CASINO RESORT Peking Acrobats to Perform for All Ages On Dec. 7-8, the Peking Acrobats will awe audiences of all ages with their dexterity and agility for three perfor mances throughout the weekend. The New York Post describes them as, “Pushing the envelope of human pos sibility ... pure artistry!” Hailing from the People's Repub lic of China, the Peking Acrobats have been diplomats of their wondrous cul ture since 1958. Members of the troupe have been seen on The Wayne Brady Show and in the movie Ocean 's Eleven. Last year they set the Guinness Book of World Records for Highest Human Chair Stack (six acrobats bal anced themselves on a 2 I-foot stack of six chairs while simultaneously per forming handstands with no safety lines or guide wires). Carefully selected from the finest acrobatic schools in China, these gym nasts, jugglers, cyclists and tumblers transform 2,000-year-old athletic dis ciplines into an all-ages festival of en tertainment and wonder. Their agility and dexterity will cause the audience to “ooh” and “aah” in sheer amazement. From as early as age 5, the hand- selected performers commence master ing disciplines dating back to the Ch'in Dynasty (225-207 B.C.), a dynamic period when acrobatic movements mir rored the pleasantries and struggles of daily life. Today, the 26-member troupe is the largest of its kind and performs under the flawless direction and choreogra phy of Hai Ken Tsai, whose family is steeped in three generations of Chinese acrobatics. Show time for the Peking Acrobats is 8 p.m. on Dec. 7, and 3 p.m. and 8 p.m. on Dec. 8. Tickets range from $10 to $20.
