An acrobatic show without live audience was staged in Wuhan Acrobatics Theater on May 27, due to the need for epidemic prevention and control. It was the first online public performance this year for the renowned art troupe, and also a first-time tryout for the actors to perform live via "cloud theater".

With flashing light and reverberating music, one can catch the sight of nearly 2,600 red seats covered with cloth, and a thick layer of dust on them. However, the actors epitomize professionalism, through which they exude confidence and excellence.

The Wuhan Acrobatics Theater covers an area of more than 27,000 square meters. The actors of the Wuhan Acrobatic Troupe have been keeping regular training every day since they resumed work on April 8. During the rehearsal, all the actors wore masks to do their best to complete each move.
