“As it is arranged for children, the pieces always have a happy ending in which the good always wins over the bad,” said Thang.
The performance will feature acrobats, a magic show and circus tricks performed by actors dressed as dogs, pigs, ostrich, panda and monkeys.
“The new performance will attract audiences with its fascinating script, music and light show,” he said.
Besides setting up in Hanoi, the troupe will perform in Hai Phong, Quang Ninh and Thai Nguyen following orders of schools and theatres there.
Ticket prices will range from 150,000 VND (12 USD) - 250,000 VND (20 USD).
There are five shows a day performed at the Vietnam Circus Federation, 67 Tran Nhan Tong street, Hanoi.
Residents of Hanoi, particularly children, will also have a chance to enjoy and learn about various folk games from around the world at the Vietnam Museum of Ethnology in Cau Giay district.
The games, part of an international cultural festival to be held on May 26-27 to celebrate International Children’s Day which falls on June 1, include those from Asian countries of Cambodia, Brunei, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Laos, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Việt Nam.
Organisers said overseas students would participate in the games and they would also teach Vietnamese visitors how to play.
The cultural activities were expected to help players, particularly children, learn about different folk games from around the world and at the same time increase knowledge of the city’s community to international guests and improve their awareness of the preservation of national cultural heritage, according to a representative from the museum.-VNA
