Taliah said, “It was amazing, and I liked it” and she said especially liked “Sleeves of Grace.”
Ms. Parmer, an NHS analyst, agreed. “Breathtaking.”
Ms. Parmer said, “I love how one minute is on the screen and then the jump out.”
Ms. Parmer said she could feel the energy that comes from Shen Yun and that she was lifted to a special place. “I just did feel that. I felt like [I] was almost being lifted to somewhere else, like, quite spiritual. Like I’ve been taken away.”
To the performers, Ms. Jeffries said: “Just to say that we loved all of it. We thought it was absolutely amazing. And just how talented they just how talented they are. They’re just lots of practice—it’s really appreciated.”
Ms. Parmer said, “There’s a lot of hard work that’s gone into this show. Really.”
And birthday girl Taliah agreed. “They did a really good job.”
Sharing Traditional Culture Makes Shen Yun ‘All the More Moving’
The Phillips bought tickets to the show after receiving a flyer. Anna Lee and Andy Phillips enjoyed everything about the Shen Yun performance. A teacher, Mrs. Phillips enjoyed the dance, “Sleeves of Grace.”The animated backdrop fascinated Mrs. Phillips. She liked “the merging of the live stage and the digital screen at the back. It’s quite incredible. I’ve never seen that before.”
Mr. Phillips, a human resource manager, agreed that the interaction between performers and the screen looked very real. “How do we know it actually came through the door?” he asked.
Through classical Chinese dance and music, Shen Yun is sharing with the world the beauty of China’s authentic 5,000 years of history before communism. Since its founding in 2006, the company has received worldwide accolades for its mission to revive traditional Chinese culture.
With shows scheduled in over 200 cities and across five continents, the 2024 touring season is shaping up to be the artists’ busiest yet.
