“It’s beautiful, magical and educational. ... I laughed and I cried.”

“I think it shows what humanity should be like.”

“I think it’s very creative how the video, the graphics and the background [digital projection] is tied in with the dancing and the music, it’s just so well choreographed. ... It’s perfect. It’s absolutely beautiful.”

“There’s so much about the Chinese culture that I’m not aware of. This is so educational to see all these different types of ethnic dances and the costumes.”

“[The performance] was described to be as a Chinese ballet, but it’s so much more than a Chinese ballet. This is like a trip through time with the arts and the beauty of China throughout history.”

“Very much [a surprise]. This is so far an absolute delight, and is so much more than I expected.”

“There were many emotions as I was going through this [performance] and watching it. Some of it was awe of the beauty and the skills of the dancers. [Another feeling was] peacefulness. There’s so much cacophony in life. This show is almost embodying the feeling of peacefulness.”

“[It’s] definitely spiritual. Spirituality and aesthetics are very harmonious. And when you do something that is beautiful, and is on an aesthetic plane like this, [it] really [reflects] one’s spirituality.”

“Any great religion has these basic, core beliefs of goodness and the belief in heaven. ... So, it rings true through many different religions, let alone the purity of this show.”

“I have already heard of the atrocity that is happening with Falun Gong and [the persecution] in China. I am already familiar with the story. To see it acted out, it brought a tear to my eye.”

“I would recommend this to anyone who loves live, beautiful, aesthetic shows. ... And more importantly, it is very spiritual. ... This is something special.”
