WASHINGTON—The Divine Performing Arts (DPA) New York Company performed its Feb. 10, Washington, D.C. opening preview show, an exclusive invite-only performance given to a packed audience at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. The show was given in honor and support of U.S. veterans to thank them for their service.

Among the audience members was Mr. Sarbis, a Washington, D.C. entrepreneur and lawyer, who enjoyed the world-class show.

“It was very colorful and the dancing was very beautiful. The solo singers were very good,” Mr. Sarvis said.

“I would describe it [the show] as very artistic and also spiritual,” he said.

The message conveyed by the show elicited a good feeling in Mr. Sarbis, who said “It was a very positive message.it is very artistic,” he said.

The DPA performers are trained in Chinese classical dance and, according to the DPA web site, “these dances give dramatic portrayal to the cherished stories of yesterday and today. Their figures embody the most exalted virtues of Chinese civilization, and convey a message or moral that is still relevant today. Many have inspired people for generations, such as the tales of heroine Mulan and general Yue Fei. Others quietly lead lives of great courage today that are sure to move and inspire.”

Mr. C. Dent, an investor, said that he was also impressed by the show.

“I loved the costumes. I’ve never seen such vividness—the colors. I liked the dancing and I liked the message,” Mr. Dent said.

“I would say it [the show] was fabulous—obviously historical Chinese performance, unbelievable set design and colors,” he said.
