In November 2005, the Golden Dragon Acrobats made their Broadway debut to a sold- out audience at the New Victory Theater, New York’s ultimate theater for kids and families. Their Broadway run over the next six weeks led to adoration and standing ovations from audiences of all ages and universal critical acclaim from the New York press. The run was highlighted by the Golden Dragons receiving two most prestigious New York Drama Desk nominations — Danny Chang for “Unique Theatrical Experience” and Angela Chang for “Best Choreography.”
The 2010 tour will mark the 31st year of continuous touring in the United States for the Golden Dragon Acrobats.
