More About Amazing Acrobats of Shanghai
From Shanghai to the Branson Strip
The Amazing Acrobats of Shanghai, also known as the Grand Shanghai Circus and remembered by many longtime Branson visitors as the Acrobats of China, carry on a Chinese acrobatic tradition that stretches back more than two thousand years. The performers train from childhood in disciplines that demand strength, balance, and timing measured in fractions of a second, and the result on stage looks less like a routine and more like the laws of physics taking the night off.
Branson has hosted Chinese acrobatic troupes for decades, and this production is the standard bearer of that tradition on the Strip today. The show pairs its acrobatics with stunning costumes, dramatic lighting, and original music, creating a Cirque-style spectacle at a fraction of the big-city price.
What You Will See on Stage
Every performance is a parade of acts that seem humanly impossible. Aerial silk artists climb and spiral high above the stage. Contortionists fold themselves through shapes that make the audience gasp and laugh in the same breath. Balancing acts stack chairs, spin plates, and hold poses that would be difficult standing on solid ground, let alone atop a swaying tower.
Add daring high-wire work, precision juggling, and group tumbling routines where a dozen bodies fly in perfect synchronization, and the two hours move fast. There is no language barrier anywhere in the show. It is entirely visual, which is part of why it works for every generation in the seats.
The Mickey Gilley Grand Shanghai Theatre
The show plays at the Mickey Gilley Grand Shanghai Theatre at 3455 W 76 Country Blvd, right in the heart of the Branson entertainment strip. The theater bears the name of the late country legend Mickey Gilley and hosts the acrobats as its resident production, with staging and lighting tailored to the aerial and balancing acts.
Parking is available at the theater, and the location puts you minutes from Branson's restaurants and attractions, which makes it easy to pair a matinee with an afternoon on the Strip or an evening show with dinner beforehand.
Planning Your Visit
Most dates play at 7:30 PM, with 2:00 PM matinees on many days and occasional 10:00 AM morning performances. The show runs about two hours, and arriving 30 minutes early leaves time to park and find your seats. The booking calendar on this page shows every date and time the theater has on sale, and every seat is booked directly with the theater.
Kids' tickets cost about half the adult rate, and children 3 and under attend free. Plans change on vacation, so every ticket comes with free cancellation up to 24 hours before showtime.
Who Will Love This Show
Families rank the acrobats among Branson's best shows for kids because the action never stops long enough for young attention spans to wander. Grandparents love it for the artistry, and group leaders book it because it lands with every age on the bus. With a 4.6-star Google rating from hundreds of visitors, it is consistently rated one of the most impressive productions in Branson.
If you are comparing Branson acrobatics shows, searching for the Shanghai Circus, or trying to find the show you saw years ago as the Acrobats of China, this is the one. Pick a date on the calendar above and lock in your seats.
