Experience
Shoulder-Pole Wire


None Available

The Shoulder-Pole Wire act is probably one of the most illusive performances ever seen in Alegría for the reason that it was only staged during the original North American Tour (1994-1996). The number was performed by a team of two artists in two separate groups: Group 1 consisted of Shi Yanping and Liu Lu, while Group 2 consisted of Kang Hui and Zheng Li Sha. Both performers of a given group were featured; one would hold the pole on his/her shoulder while the other flipped in the air on its thin wire line. You can see the act's position below:
