Shangri-La Chinese Acrobat Troupe

The entire school was lucky enough to go to the Mahaiwe Performing Arts Theatre to see the Shangri-La Chinese Acrobat Troupe. The show was incredible! I wasn't able to take photos until applause at the very end, so I only have these few photos to share. But it was amazing! http://www.chineseacrobats.com/sgl.php
