HUNTSVILLE, Ala.—Internationally acclaimed Divine Performing Arts (DPA) has presented truthfulness, kindness, and beauty through classical Chinese dance and folk dances. The performance displayed the depth and broadness of 5,000 years of Chinese culture and on Feb. 6, over 2,000 people watched the breathtaking performance in Huntsville, Alabama. The curtain was raised again after a standing ovation at the end of the show.

This is the second time that Ms. Wang, a professor at the accounting department of Alabama A&M University, came to watch the DPA show. At intermission, she described her feelings with excitement.

She was captivated by the performance saying, “Dancers are well trained, and they put on a surprisingly uniform, powerful performance.”

The first dance, The Five Millennia Begin, was her favorite. When the curtain was raised for the piece, she was amazed by the golden, brilliant kingdom and goddesses enshrouded in misty clouds.

Ms. Wang liked the colorful costumes, which she thought “helped convey the deeper meaning of classic Chinese dancing.”

She was also impressed by the dancing and was very keen to see the show again. “In comparison with other dances,” she said, “their hand gestures and body movement are so subtle. The performance is exquisite.”

Ms. Wang was pleased to watch such an outstanding performance in the Chinese New Year’s season. She felt the warmth of returning to her home. She was certain if a performance of such caliber could be shown in China, it would be as popular there as it is here.

“I was so anxious to watch it again this year and bought the tickets as soon as I learned about the schedule. It’s drawing a full audience this year, must be that both Chinese and Western audiences loved the performance last year.”
