The Golden Dragon Acrobats, an award-winning, renowned Chinese acrobatic troupe, known for their physical grace and spectacular costumes, will perform at the Shea Center for Performing Arts at 7 p.m. on March 12 at William Paterson University in Wayne.

The performance, directed by Danny Chang, will include a compilation of acrobatic feats, traditional dance, and a combination of ancient and contemporary theatrical techniques.

The group has received numerous awards including seven National Association of Campus Activities (NACA) Entertainer of the Year Awards.

Tickets are $26 standard, $24 for senior citizens, William Paterson faculty and staff, $15 for children aged 13-17 and $8 for William Paterson students.
