Lyceum Series Presents The Golden Dragon Acrobats

The Kohlenberg Lyceum Series will debut its first event of the season with The Golden Dragon Acrobats at 7:30 p.m. Sept. 19 in Baldwin Auditorium.


In 2005, The Golden Dragon Acrobats made their Broadway debut to a sold-out audience at the New Victory Theater. Their Broadway run over the next six weeks received universal critical acclaim from the New York Press.

Their performance utilizes tridents, wicker rings and daily artifacts such as tables, jars, plates and bowls. The Golden Dragon Acrobats represent a 25-century-old tradition, developing into one of the most popular art forms among the Chinese culture.

This season the Lyceum Series will also feature Rhonda Vincent Nov. 14, “The Great Gatsby” Feb. 14, “Seven Brides for Seven Brothers” March 3, and “Much Ado About Nothing” March 20. All events will take place at 7:30 p.m. in Baldwin Auditorium.

Tickets will be on sale a week before the event. Students can pick up their free ticket by presenting a Truman ID at the Student Activities Board Box Office, located in the lower level of the Student Union Building. Faculty and staff can receive their free tickets by showing their Truman ID at the Information Center in the Student Union Building. General admission tickets cost $10 and can be purchased downtown at Edna Campbell’s, the Truman Cashier’s Window in McClain Hall or online at lyceum.truman.edu.
