Professor Appreciates Shen Yun’s Presentation of China’s Cultural Journey
Professor Janet Pierce (R) and her sister, Jean Ellis, enjoyed the Shen Yun performance at FirstOntario Concert Hall in Hamilton, Canada, on Jan. 26, 2018. “I saw this show in Calgary about eight years ago. I loved it, and when I knew it was coming here I wanted to see it again. It’s wonderful,” Ms. Ellis said. (Allen Zhou/The Epoch Times)

“It’s amazing! The soprano was unbelievable and I loved the chopsticks dance [a traditional Mongolian dance titled ‘Lofty Spirits on the Grasslands’]. Fantastic—very funny, just makes me laugh. It was very, very good.”

“The dancers were unbelievable. They looked like they were floating across the stage. ... They’re beautiful.”

“I love the screen in the background; it flows with what’s on the stage [referring to Shen Yun’s animated backdrop that interacts with the live performance on the stage]. It’s really amazing. It’s unique. I’ve never seen anything like it before.”

“[Regarding China’s 5,000 years of history presented by Shen Yun,] it’s so good for us here in North America to be able to see that journey. It’s very, very interesting. [The Chinese culture] is very diverse. It’s beautiful, and the costumes are unbelievable.”

“[Referring to the soprano,] you can tell that she’s passionate about what she’s singing. And the pianist [accompanying her] was amazing.”

“This is a gift from our mom. She’s 91 years old. She’ll be very happy that we enjoyed it so much.”
