ERA: Intersection of Time is a resident acrobatic production staged at Shanghai Circus World in Jing'an District. Debuting in September 2005 and later refreshed as ERA 2, the show combines centuries-old Chinese circus arts with contemporary theatrical design, multimedia projections, water effects, and original live music.
The performance loosely explores the passage of time, bridging ancient Chinese traditions and the futuristic pace of Shanghai. The acts feature classic acrobatic disciplines including jar juggling, aerial silks, hoop diving, and high-wire balancing, set against dynamic visual backdrops. The performance culminates with a stunt in which multiple motorcyclists race at high speeds inside a large spherical steel cage.
The venue is a dedicated, domed circus arena located directly outside Shanghai Circus World station on Metro Line 1. Shows run primarily in the evening, with additional afternoon matinees on weekends.
