NEW YORK—“The whole combination bespeaks the truth,” said a Professor of Fine Arts at the Divine Performing Arts 2009 World Tour showcase held recently at Howard Gilman Opera House, Brooklyn Academy of Music.

On a visit from Colombia, South America, Prof. Garcia who is also a research communicator, returned to his home a richer man.

“I’ve seen other shows in Colombia before,” he said. “I think this is a wonderful opportunity to know about China, in many things. It was a really great experience; I enjoyed it. They have a good technique, good expression, it’s a perfect group.”

DJ and lighting technician Olly Willey was taken by the animated projection screen.

“I especially liked the big backdrop—the projector screen,” he said.

Each backdrop is designed to match the choreography of the dance at hand, as well as its costumes, story line, lighting and even music.

Many are animated, such as snow gently covering the countryside, or flower petals sweeping across a field, to majestic Chinese palaces, Buddhist temples, cascading clouds and billowing seas.

“They’re funny, amusing, very colorful and nice.”

If you missed the show over the weekend, the Divine Performing Arts will be at Radio City Music Hall on January 24 and 25 to bring in the Chinese New Year.
