WYCOMBE, UK—Sally Hills, a manager for a motor company, and her sister Deborah Chant Ling were uplifted by Shen Yun Performing Arts at the Wycombe Swan Theatre on Feb. 21, 2026.
“The show was absolutely phenomenal … everything about it is fantastic,” said Mrs. Hills, “it’s emotional, it’s inspiring, and it’s humbling as well.”
Besides talented dancers, Shen Yun features a patented animated backdrop technology that allows for seamless interaction between the dancers on stage and the background scenery, and colorful handmade costumes.
According to the company’s website, Shen Yun presents “China before communism.”
The sisters said the messages of “love and goodwill and peace and compassion … makes you feel uplifted.”
“My face hurts from smiling,” said Mrs. Hill, “I want to book it for London, for my husband’s birthday.”
“I recommend it to everybody,” she added.
Ms. Ling, who is retired from the entertainment industry, said, “I gave up my powered wheelchair to get here because I couldn’t park nearby. … So, I’m really struggling, but it was worth every ounce.”
‘A Message That Should be Told’
Flavio Meira, resource manager, and his wife, Christiana Meira, pharmacist, were impressed with the positive messages of Shen Yun Performing Arts at the Wycombe Swan Theatre on Feb. 21, 2026.“There is a bit of a mixture of beauty and strength within the Chinese culture … which is a nice balance to have,” he added.
In the past, artists looked to the divine for inspiration and cultivated virtue in order to create uplifting art. Today, Shen Yun’s artists follow in this noble tradition, which is why audiences feel there is something different about Shen Yun, says the company’s website.
“Being good and to do right … [to] be the vessel on earth, until God calls us to heaven … it should be a message that every one of us as humans [relate] to,” Mr. Meira said.
“This is a message that should be told throughout the world,” Mrs. Meira said.
