General Manager of the SPA Lee Strickland told Xinhua that the organization has brought some Chinese art performing groups in Houston in the past 20 years and this was the fourth time that The Peking Acrobats had performed here.

"Traditionally it's been great. People actually love this company," he said. "They are the fans' favorite."

Strickland said the novel coronavirus disease in China should not stop people from celebrating the culture.

"Especially at a time like this, it's best to celebrate the Chinese people and their arts that they provide. The richness of their culture should be celebrated, not feared," he said.

Since its founding in 1986, The Peking Acrobats have achieved international acclaim, dazzling audiences around the world.
