The Shaolin Monks, originators of Kung Fu martial arts, are currently on the second leg of their U.S. tour, National Wheel of Life Show, scheduled in over 30 cities, including Boston, Albany, Columbus, Detroit, Milwaukee, Indianapolis, Laurence, Ames, San Rafael, Tthousand Oaks, and San Diego. On Friday, February 7, they will perform at the Chicago Theatre in Chicago. They bring their trademark feats of discipline, strength and courage to life in a spectacular theatrical event - Wheel of Life. The Soldier Monks of the Shaolin Temple and six young trainees, all from China's Henan Province, thrill audiences with a brilliantly choreographed and tightly executed self-defense exhibition. The Shaolin Wheel of Life Show is a multi-sensory theatrical spectacle that presents 1500 years of the Monks' power and spirit in the context of an artistic interpretation of a true historical event.
Tickets are priced at $47.00 / $37.00 / $32.00 and are available at the Theatre, or via Ticketmaster. (Irene Cualoping, ENERI Communications)
