“It was amazing—the word I have for it is breathtaking.”

“I dabbled in a little dance class but it’s amazing just to watch them—they’re just like on air ... And the grace that they had and, like we were saying before my friend and I, they were just all in sync. They didn’t miss a beat, it was perfect really. Amazing.”

“The strength that comes out of them is amazing really. Really good.”

“I literally, the first minute I just kinda stood with my eyes wide open, not blinking because I’d never seen that instrument [erhu] before and just the way she was doing it. My wrists were just hurting looking at her because the strength that came out of her playing that instrument ... it was amazing really.”

“As she was playing it [erhu], I kind of got transferred away for a moment and I just felt like I wasn’t in the theatre. I was just kind of, I can’t explain it, but the music really took me away. It was a wonderful feeling.”

“I loved the stories that went with the dances because there was so much emotion that came through their bodies—I enjoyed it.”
