“It was absolutely beautiful. Just perfection,” said Chaplin, who owns a construction firm with her husband. She added that seeing the performance made her “want to go home and quietly just sit and think and feel.”

“Seeing it and feeling it and watching the show really made you feel like you were part of their [the performers’] life. It was just, it was so clean feeling. I mean, they’re jumping and you don’t hear a footstep. ... It is so breathtaking. It was breathtaking,” Chaplin said.

To her, Shen Yun’s dancers were “beautiful, just right on the cue, everything. Their costumes, the colors were just spectacular.”

“The way that they worked as a team, the colors, the art of just them working together. And you could feel their story. You can close your eyes and understand where they were coming from. ... Again it’s just so, it was perfection,” she added.

Chaplin’s biggest takeaway from Shen Yun’s performance is the “wish our world would be more like this.”

“I think that the way that they work together and the performing, the work up to this show, I wish our world and our cultures were a little bit more like this. I feel that they’re strong, they’re a team, they work together, they love. I just wish our world was a little bit better like this. It would be a lot, a lot better [for it]. They seem happy. They seem like they love what they do. More people need to love what they do in this world. I really believe that.”
