Program Introduction
The “Performance to Celebrate the 74th Anniversary of the National Day of the People's Republic of China” – Large-scale original acrobatic drama “The Bridge”, jointly organised by the Cultural Affairs Bureau of the Macao SAR Government and the Department of Publicity and Culture of the Liaison Office of the Central People’s Government in the Macao SAR, and presented by China Nanjing Acrobatic Troupe Co., Ltd, will be held on 30 September and 1 October, at 8pm, at the Venetian Theatre, allowing the public to enjoy a magnificent acrobatic show while celebrating the National Day.
The large-scale original acrobatic theme drama “The Bridge” narrates the story of tens of thousands of builders in the 1950s who converged at the deserted grasslands along the Yangtze River from across the country to build the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge, praising the independence, determination and relentless entrepreneurship of people in that era who accomplished the magnificent feat of building the bridge. Adopting the form of an acrobatic drama, the China Nanjing Acrobatic Troupe Co., Ltd fully represents important scenes during the construction of the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge, interprets the conflicts among the characters, and highlights the collective images of heroes and patriotism manifested during the construction process. The meticulous design not only broadens the approach to produce acrobatic dramas but also extends the artistic influence of this type of drama.
