Yuan Zheng, of the Son Acrobat troupe, is from China, a country with a reputed tradition of circus performers and a steady supplier of artists to circuses in the U.S. Zheng is dressed up for his lasso act, which uses a "Rawhide" soundtrack and features a Mexican girl as sidekick. Two other boys and four girls, performing such diverse acts as plate balancing, contortion and somersaults, make up the group.
