“Its absolutely superb—really blew me away.”

Ms. Duke was amazed by the synchronization between the numerous dancers on stage, the orchestra, and the digital moving backdrops

“It was so synchronized. The amount of work involved must be amazing,” she said.

“They should be very proud of themselves.”

One of her favourite pieces was a dance entitled Martial Arts Training Ground. In this dance, soldiers hone their skills for the battlefield with challenging jumps, flips, and tumbling techniques.

“The power and the grace is wonderful,” she said.

Mr. Hening was struck by Snowflakes Welcoming Spring, which features numerous graceful female dancers twirling sparkling handkerchief “snowflakes” to mark the change of the seasons.

“I thought that was just beautiful,” he said.
