The company bought the White House Theater in Branson, Missouri, US, at the end of 2009, to facilitate the show's regular performance, in July 2010.

"Like Peking Opera, martial arts have long been one of China's important cultural exports. The show combines kungfu with acrobatics, another traditional art form, making The Legend of Kungfu unique," says Cao Xiaoning, CEO of China Heaven Creation Theater Company. "Foreigners are interested in a culture that is so different from theirs."
