“It was graceful, and the precision timing, amazing.”

“[Being amateur dancers] we appreciate the sleeves, the sleeve dance [‘Han Dynasty Sleeves’]—the precision dancing is amazing.”

“Beautiful choreography … it’s nice to have something from different parts of China to experience, we don’t experience that very often.”

“And the music, the orchestra is so gentle and, we’re sitting up the back but it’s very gentle and relaxing—it’s a full orchestra too.”

“That’s the other amazing thing, to dance with a live orchestra, so difficult. Because it’s not a recorded piece, the timing... Every arm, every foot is perfect.”

“[‘Monkey King at Fire Mountain’]  brings out the Chinese sense of humour … They have very unique sense of humour.”

“It was very good, emotionally touching.”
