“I loved the show because it’s a traditional show,” she said. “I’m very attached to tradition because the show is classical, with good values on the divine, hard work, patience and tradition.”
“It’s an honest and profound show,” she added.
“The level of artistry, it’s very polished, very high and specific!” said Mr. Hays enthusiastically, echoed by his niece. “It’s amazing because there’s dancing, but there’s also gymnastics with backward jumps, somersaults, big splits! I don’t think you can top that on an artistic level!”
Mr. Hays felt “very happy, very good and very happy! And as my niece says, there is this spiritual dimension which is almost religious, which is encouraging.”
Bringing Balance
Serge Razza is a communication coach. “It’s a show that I really like because you get to know traditional China. The scenes are short enough that the rhythm is very pleasant. You go from one scene to another, from one dynasty to another, it’s very interesting.”
Mr. Razza admired the artists’ technique, and what it was used to convey.
“We are in communion with the dancers. Then there is this benevolence which transpires effectively ... and one feels very at ease, one is appeased.”
“It allows us to rediscover the human values that we might have had at a certain time when we were younger or a few years ago when there was more communion between people. So it’s very interesting to regain this balance between the two,” he said.
