CONWAY — The Shaolin Warriors will return to the Donald W. Reynolds Performance Hall at the University of Central Arkansas for one performance at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday as part of the UCA Public Appearances 2007-2008 Season.
Tickets range from $10 to $35 and can be purchased by calling toll free (866) 810-0012 between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday through Friday, or by going online at www.uca.edu/tickets. Each UCA student may receive two free tickets. UCA students must present their valid UCA ID at UCA Ticket Central box office at the front of Reynolds Performance Hall, during regular box office hours.
Twenty-two Shaolin monks make up the Shaolin Warriors company. All study or have studied at the Shaolin Monastery in China's Henan Province. According to their program information, "The Shaolin performers train in martial arts for several hours every day, perfecting the art of hand-to-hand and weapons combat. Each performer is required to achieve an extraordinarily high level of proficiency in each of the 18 traditional weapons and become a master of one. However, it is the daily practice of seated meditation that enables the performers to sustain a demanding physical regimen."
