MISSISSAUGA, Canada—Shen Yun Performing Arts’ second sold-out show at Mississauga’s Living Arts Centre was met with warm acclaim from its full audience.
Aerospace manager Don Sharkey, who works with satellites and robotics like the Canadarm, said it was his family’s first time to see the Shen Yun performance and they were “very, very impressed.”
“We’re enjoying it very much,” he said during intermission.
“The dancers are magnificent. The music is magnificent, and the matching with the videos and the projections—it’s all really great.”
He had particular praise for Shen Yun’s digital backdrop.
“Wonderful! Wonderful technology,” he said.
The backdrop puts each dance in vividly animated settings, combining heaven and earth into one, providing mesmerizing windows into completely different realms.

“I thought the dancing was very beautiful. The colours were very vibrant. It was choreographed very well,” said Chris Hammond, an insurance adjustor who processes complex claims.
“I enjoyed it.”
Mr. Hammond was impressed by Shen Yun’s unique music, played live by a philharmonic orchestra that includes Chinese instruments leading the melodies.
“The orchestra was nice. It was nice to see that because they said there was a mixture of Western and Eastern music so they balanced each other very well. It was a good balance between each type of music.”
