“First of all, it’s amazing story,” Dr. Monika Konczyk said. “Because the actors, the dancers, the music is telling us a beautiful story from the ancient times or even pre-ancient times.”
The Consul-General of the Republic of Poland appreciated that the performance portrayed the lives of all kinds of people in ancient China.
“We can follow the history and the history of China—Chinese people—not only the emperor but also the ordinary people. About their feelings, love—a lot of emotions,” she added.
“The story of ordinary people; that they can even dance during ordinary shopping time, at the marketplace, and the magnificent flute. This is a nice story and everybody was laughing.”
What struck Konczyk the most was the harmonious blend between the long sleeve costumes and the dance movements: “It’s really amazing.”
The name Shen Yun in Chinese means “the beauty of divine beings dancing,” and the artists perform with the purpose of bringing that experience to the audience.
“Truly speaking, I am from a Catholic country and I believe in God, so I think that it’s something for me, it’s quite common or normal that we are related to divine or supernature, the God that rules our life.”
