Acrobats take a whirl at CSI

The Peking Acrobats twirl, tumble, and twist onto the stage at the Center for the Arts at the College of Staten Island for a premier performance on Feb. 23.

Since its debut in the United States in 1986 the troupe has redefined the art of acrobatics with daring maneuvers, precision tumbling, trick cycling, amazing displays of contortion, and death-defying acts of gravity.

Along with Chinese music and the pageantry of a Chinese Carnival, the Peking Acrobats will have audience members sitting on the edge of their seats and holding their breath from one minute to the next. The Peking Acrobats, Feb. 23 at 2 pm. Tickets are $15 to $18.

Center for the Arts at the College of Staten Island [2800 Victory Blvd., (718) 982-2787; www.cfashows.com].
