LOUISVILLE, Ky.—Eighty-five-year-old Edgar Kuhlenschmidt traveled with his wife, Audrey, and their friend Judy Norrington from Evansville, Indiana to see Shen Yun Performing Arts in Louisville on May 1—a two hour and 20 minute trip. “I thought it was great,” Mr. Kuhlenschmidt said.
Through music and dance, New York-based Shen Yun aims to revive 5,000 years of divinely inspired Chinese civilization.
The Kuhlenschmidts had traveled to Japan and China several times over Mr. Kuhlenschmidt’s career. He has owned several franchises, including a Toyoto dealership. He currently is president and main stockholder of Vincennes Tractor, Inc.
As soon as Mrs. Kuhlenschmidt saw an ad, she knew she wanted to see the performance.
“It was wonderful,” she said.
“I was glad that I ordered the tickets and came,” said, Ms. Norrington, a retired vice president of a printing company in Evansville.
