Omary Mohammed from Tanzania arrived in Wuqiao two weeks before the festival for on-site adaptive training at the Oriental Acrobatics Center — a newly built 2,000-seat theater with a 20-meter-high stage. "The equipment and the theater are amazing, totally different from back home," he said.
Mohammed was also impressed by the Wuqiao Acrobatic Art School, located next to the theater. "We don't have anything like this. We trained from You-Tube videos," he said.
