Ltd., allowing the public to enjoy an exquisite acrobatic show while celebrating the National Day. The show will be held on 30 September and 1 October, at 7:30pm, at the Macao Forum. Tickets are now on sale at the Macau Ticketing Network.

The large-scale acrobatic show “The Golden Hooped Rod” is based on Journey to the West, using the golden hooped rod as a clue. It shows the development of Sun Wukong’s apprenticeship, vanquishes demons and monsters, solidifies the Pei-Ho River forever and tells many other legends. The Golden Hooped Rod is an artefact and a weapon and it is a symbol of justice, wisdom and strength. “The Golden Hooped Rod” is the first staged drama in China to integrate 3D multimedia technology into traditional acrobatics and magic performances, harmoniously combining the scenes of Mount Huaguo in Jiangsu, the Eastern Sea Dragon King Palace, the elimination of evil spirits, and many other fantastic scenes, making the show more mythical and magical. This innovative form of performance allows the audience to enjoy a wonderful acrobatic show. The performance unit China Nanjing Acrobatic Troupe Co. Ltd. pursued artistic innovation and a breakthrough and its original acrobatic show “The Golden Hooped Rod" was selected as the first project funded by the China National Arts Fund with the first score of acrobatics and was also selected for the 20th Shanghai China International Arts Festival programme. The world tour brought more than 100 shows and is influential both at home and abroad.
