“Integrating the dimension of the infinity to the theater, and characters [that] come from the far end and then show up on the stage is amazing. The integration is amazing, the synchronization is amazing,” Mr. Sabawy said of Shen Yun’s renowned special effect, allowing its dancers on stage to interact with an infinite number of scenes through its patented use of an animated backdrop.

“Everyone is a small piece of the whole picture and everyone does his job perfectly so that we see that perfect picture—colors, lights, music, dresses, everything is very, very impressive.”

Former Member of Parliament Wladyslaw Lizon said, “This show always brings something new. But we still have to remember that people in communist China are persecuted, Falun Gong and other groups are persecuted for one thing, for their beliefs that don’t align with the current policies. I truly hope that this ends, and soon.”

Based in New York, Shen Yun has been touring the world since 2006, and has grown to eight different companies. It presents an all-new performance of “China before communism” every year.

Mr. Sabawy said, “Everybody should see [Shen Yun] because it’s a wonderful kind [of] opportunity. It’s here.”
