Then it went to an act in which on of the woman climbed a "curtain" and did tricks while holding on to it while a man spun her. 4th act was the one I showed on the picture bar up top. It was amazing because to stack the chairs like that they needed to get up on the first person and crawl their way up to the top. Then they caught a chair that was thrown up to them from ground level and stack the chair on top of the previous one. Then it repeated. After that there was a tightrope act that was cool too. The man sung almost 180 degrees back and forth while on a unicycle. After that they had an act with bicycles in which 15 people got on 1 bicycle. It was insane. The final act was the "Ball of Doom" as my dad called it. In the act 4 motorcycles1 by 1 enter a steel mesh ball about 20 ft. in diameter and rode in different patterns. 2 rode parallel to the ground and the other 2 did loops between them. Don't believe me? Look it up. It was obviously a large case of best for last. It was awesome and if you ever get a chance to see Cirque at all, do it. It's great.
Hello again, I have another late post! About a week ago me and my family went to see Cirque Shanghai and I'm pretty sure I can't do it justice (between my writing skills and the fact that it's so awesome). Anyway Ill try. First off there was a huge into with basically everyone in the cast doing weird stuff (I don't know how else to describe it) while praising an emperor or something to that effect. That quickly melted into the standard act of them jumping through different sized hoops (mostly small) at the same time or doing weird things.
