THE Chinese State Circus opens in Eastcote today (Wednesday, 11) with its new spectacular, Dynasty.

The circus is at Field End Recreation Ground, Eastcote, until Sunday in its heated Big Top.

Dynasty features hi-tech acrobatics, hurtling porcelain jars and gigantic pyramids of tables and chairs.

Chinese acrobats, aerial artists and jugglers inter-act with the physical skills and dexterity of the masters of martial arts, the Shaolin Warriors.

The action is set to a soaring musical score, accompanied by the rhythmic beats of Chinese percussion.

Performances are: Wednesday-Friday: 4.45pm and 7.30. Saturday: 2pm, 4.45 and 7.30. Sunday: noon and 3pm.
