NANTES, France—Shen Yun Performing Arts dazzled audiences in the historic French city of Nantes with performances on Feb. 22 and Feb. 24. Theatergoers were deeply moved by the presentation of 5,000 years of traditional Chinese culture on stage.

“I really enjoyed this performance; full of magic, grace, and naturalness. You can also see a lot of dedication and attention to details, all for our enjoyment, whether for the young or the elderly,” physiotherapist Adrien Bergère said.

William Thullier, a former sales director, said the performance was, “Amazing! This is the second year I’ve come, and it really is magical! Impressive! At times moving. That’s truly how I felt both times. It was really beautiful. Very, very beautiful.”

Pascal Clermontel, a deputy prosecutor, said, “I loved the water-sleeve sequence. I found it really amazing, and such a great idea to show it that way. That dance really touched me.”

Gisèle Queron, a former human resources director, said, “Everything moved me. The women are so graceful, it’s really lovely. Everything is just beautiful.”

Based in New York, Shen Yun’s mission is to remind the world of the beauty of “China before communism.”

Alexandre Baron, a business owner, said, “This is my first time seeing Shen Yun. I think it’s really, really great; very colorful. The scenes are magnificent, and you really feel immersed in Chinese art and tradition.”

Alain Collas, a historian and history professor, said, “I kind of expected it but it’s really, really great. It’s even better than I imagined. There are very beautiful scenes, the dancers are really, really good, and the history and its meaning are also quite interesting.”

Ms. Queron said, “It’s actually magical. Two wonderful hours, you forget everything else and are completely transported to ancient China. It’s amazing.”

“What’s really important is that this performance will actually preserve the values and traditions of China. And it’s very important to stay grounded and continue keeping them alive. This really needs to go on for a long time,” Mr. Baron said.

Shen Yun will be performing in Amiens, France, from March 17–19 and other cities on its 2026 world tour.
