MINNEAPOLIS—“It’s fresh and bright and beautiful and it depicts the things that make life beautiful,” said Kurt Grigoleit, engineer, about Shen Yun Performing Arts.
Watching Shen Yun for the third year, Mr. Grigoleit and his wife Elizabeth, registered nurse, attended the matinee performance at the Orpheum Theatre on Feb. 25.
“I never expect to see the same thing so [I’m] just always wondering what it’s going to be … it’s always a surprise!”
“The performance is beautiful … I find it quite stunning,” said Mr. Grigoleit, “and I really appreciate that Shen Yun speaks the truth.”
One dance piece this year depicts the state-orchestrated crime of forced organ harvesting from Falun Dafa prisoners of conscience in China, part of the CCP’s persecution campaign.
“I do like that they are addressing the organ harvesting of Falun Gong practitioners and anyone else that they keep on the side in prisons,” he said. “It’s getting the message across and also very entertaining and beautiful.”
“It’s good that it finishes strong that goodness will prevail,” he added.
“I think many people are visual,” she said,” it always has a bigger impact … [and] leaves a much deeper impression on people than simply words.”
