HOLLYWOOD, Calif.—Shen Yun Performing Arts took audience members in Hollywood on a journey through ancient China on May 3. Among the audience was Arcelia Martinez, a screenwriter, who was deeply impressed by Shen Yun’s artistry after watching the matinee performance at the Dolby Theatre.

“It is beautiful, eloquent, and so detailed,” she said.

“The dancers are incredible, just flawless and ninja-like,” she said. “Like when they do their turns, and they don’t even make a sound when they land. I imagine that’s what a ninja does. They don’t want anyone to know. But they are just incredible.”

Shen Yun programs feature more than a dozen vignettes, including musical solos, classical Chinese dance, and ethnic and folk dances.

Ms. Martinez said she was very impressed with the discipline and dedication of the performers.

“I’m amazed at the performance, at the amount of effort it takes. The colors are amazing and very calming and soothing.”

One of her favorite aspects of the performance were the intricate details in the stories and the costumes.

“The Chinese culture is so rich in history. They appreciate everything. There is so much detail to everything,” said Ms. Martinez.
