Universal Theatre (Heaven & Earth Theatre)
Around 100m north of Poly Plaza, young performers from the China National Acrobatic Troupe perform their mind-bending, joint-popping contortions. A favourite with tour groups, you’ll need to book ahead. Tickets are pricier the further from the stage you sit. Keep an eye out for the dismal white tower that looks like it should be in an airport – that’s where you buy your tickets (credit cards not accepted).

Mei Lanfang Grand Theatre
Named after China’s most famous practitioner of Peking opera, this theatre opened its doors in 2007 and has since become one of the most popular and versatile venues in town. As well as traditional opera, you can see Shakespeare productions and modern theatre. Contemporary dance companies and international ballet troupes also take to the good-sized stage on a regular basis.
