SANTIAGO, Chile—Despite the very cold weather in Santiago, the Shen Yun Performing Arts attracted a full house to its last performance in Chile on Sunday evening July 12.
Ms. Musso and Mr. Maldonado, both professional photographers, were highly impressed with the show after watching it at the Teletón Theater.
“I'm surprised and happy, I liked it very much. The visuals, how everything intertwines, the music, the dance,” Ms. Musso said.
She had never before seen a show like Shen Yun, with “every scene different from the other.”
Shen Yun features animated state-of-the art digital backdrops portraying different scenes ranging from blossoming landscapes to celestial palaces.
While watching the performance, Ms. Musso said she felt her heart “beating to the rhythm of the music.”
“It [my heart] was going outside a little,” she said.
Mr. Maldonado said he was likewise pleasantly surprised with how the show was presented.
“Because of the emcees, how they introduce everything, how they tell you a little of the story, what comes next. And finally the show itself [surprised me], the dancing, the costumes, the colors. That was good. It's been very interesting,” he said.
He praised the dancers and the colors, and emphasized the uniqueness of Shen Yun, while noting that he has lived in many countries around the world and has never seen a show like this.
“They [the emcees] give it a special touch, I liked it,” he said.
Mr. Musso commented on the piece Heaven Awaits Us Despite Persecution which depicts the story of an innocent family whose father is persecuted for practicing of Falun Gong, a traditional spiritual discipline, by the hands of the Chinese Communist Party in China.
“For me, the presentation of what is going on now in China, the suppression, and the fact they are outside and how they present that, that was one of the things that moved me,” he said.
Mr. Maldonado said he will recommend the show to others in “any way possible.”
Shen Yun Performing Arts will return to Argentina, this time to Cordoba, to perform three shows from July 16 to 18.
