Chaoyang Dajuchang (Chaoyang Theatre) is one of the many Beijing theatres specialising in acrobatics and magic, and stages daily shows.
The art of Chinese acrobatics is around 2000 years old, and was one of the few art forms that Chairman Mao condoned. As a result, it excelled whilst other art forms declined, and a modern acrobatic show is one of the best entertainment deals in Beijing.
As tourists have recently expressed a massive interest in martial arts performances, it is quite common to see some martial arts mixed in. For the real thing, a show in Shaolin, if you can make it, is a much better bet.
