They can bend themselves in two! They can flip and twist in midair! They can balance on a single hand! They have the strength of ten of you! No, they are not the latest team of superheroes — they are Olympic gymnasts! And you can catch the 2008 Tour of Gymnastics Superstars at 3 p.m. at the Scottrade Center (1401 Clark Avenue). Everyone from Nastia Liukin (pictured, right) and Shawn Johnson (pictured, left) to the Hamm brothers and more will be in town showing off amazing feats, and doing it all to music: Jordan Pruitt performs live! Tickets to the show cost $29.50 to $79 and are available for purchase through Ticketmaster (314-241-1888 or www.ticketmaster.com).
