China Circus on Ice 2009

For more than a half a century, the Heilongjiang Acrobatic troupe kept audiences on the edge of their seats with a contemporary spin on traditional Chinese acrobatics. Then, the company's artistic director had an idea: Put the act on ice. Follow a group of graduates from the Wuqiao School of Acrobatic Arts as they train for the troupe's upcoming Aurora on Ice tour during the obstacle-filled preparations for their big opening night in Taipei.
