TAIPEI, Taiwan—Divine Performing Arts (DPA) International Company arrived in Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport on Feb. 19 to present DPA 2009 World Tour to audiences in Taiwan for the next month.

Upon the performers’ arrival, more than a hundred fans greeted them at the airport.

“Taiwan gives me a familiar feeling. The audiences are very enthusiastic. I know there are many Taiwanese studying Chinese classical dance. So I truly hope to bring the most beautiful, most authentic Chinese classical dance to them,” said Jennifer Su, principal dancer of DPA International Company.

Although hit by the global financial crisis, throughout Taiwan DPA tickets were sold out—more than 90,000 tickets were sold, double the number of last year.

“What we’ve done is unprecedented. DPA’s influence around the world is accelerating at a wonderful rate. Especially during such an economic time, people need to learn the truth,” said Guimin Guan, tenor and vice company director of DPA International Company.

Some people in Hong Kong and the mainland have bought tickets to the show in Taiwan. They are ready to fly to Taiwan to see DPA performances despite the fact that the Chinese communist regime has tried to stop people from going.

“Traditionally Chinese people believe in the existence of divine beings, which contrasts with the Chinese Communist Party’s atheism. Our mission is to revive traditions, China’s authentic culture. We want the entire world to know what’s genuine Chinese culture. I hope all those who watch the show can learn the truth,” said Mr. Guan.

DPA International Company will stay in Taiwan for the next month, showing in six cities, including Tainan, Taipei, Chia-Yi, Hsinchu, Kaohsiung, and Taichung.
