In a Nutshell

Acrobats balance on towers of chairs, tumble through the air, and juggle with their feet against an illuminated backdrop

The Fine Print

Dancers use their bodies to express emotions, unlike opera singers, who use their voices, and Punchin' Jack, who only uses his fists. Get an eyeful of art with this GrouponLive deal to see Cirque Ziva featuring the Golden Dragon Acrobats perform at Akron Civic Theatre. For $12, you get one ticket for reserved seating in the rear orchestra or middle balcony on Sunday, April 21, at 3 p.m. (up to a $25 value). Doors open at 2 p.m.

The Golden Dragon Acrobats, natives of China, have grown their show for over four decades, drawing from a tradition that extends more than 25 centuries back to create a nationally touring display of strength, dexterity, and poise. The New York Times says the performers “know how to keep topping themselves,” a feat they prove once again in their latest incarnation, Cirque Ziva. Against a multihued backdrop illuminated by award-winning lighting director Tony Tucci, the company careens though a show packed with spectacles created by producer and Golden Dragon artistic director Danny Chang. Jumpsuit-clad acrobats climb into the centers of large hoops, coaxing them into stage-encircling rolls, and others assume gravity-defying poses atop towers of chairs and precarious ladders. Also unfolding on the stage is a contortionist who remains stone-still to balance pyramids of champagne glasses on the bottom of her raised foot.

Akron Civic Theatre

The medieval carvings, European antiques, and Italian alabaster sculptures at the Akron Civic Theatre absorb the ascending harmonies of symphony concerts and heavy rock ‘n’ roll alike. Built in 1929 to resemble a Moorish castle, the venue has maintained much of its historic charm, including the exceedingly rare atmospheric ceiling, in which stars twinkle and clouds float by as mesmerizingly as the last few corn flakes atop a bowl of milk.

  • Dining room of a fancy restaurant
  • Renaissance faire
  • Competitive-eating competition
  • Spooky mansion
  • Ventilation system of a skyscraper

Houston, we have a baby.
