Shen Yun Performing Arts Intro

What makes Shen Yun special?

Before Communism, China had a glorious past.

Here at Shen Yun, we strive to present traditional Chinese culture as it once was: a study in grace, wisdom, and the virtues distilled from the five millennia of Chinese civilization.

Come and experience China before Communism!

Dancing with heart shows so well in these performances. You can feel the heart they dance with. It is amplified by everyone who puts their heart into these productions - the musicians, set and costumer designers and builders. Just stunning!

[AldoSchmedack]

As an American, I truly respect the Chinese culture and people GREATLY. I truly hope one day they can break free from the communism they must endure now and become free & fully able to be the great people on the world stage they are born to be.

Not everyone can dance. Everyone of us can, Love more. Love unconditionally - no matter who or what. This is where all healing does lie in eternity ~

[Yunpingcheer]

The show s a light of hope in the darkness we are going through now.
One can feel the power of compassion and message of hope.
The ancient Chinese culture and tradition remind us of our connection with our divinity.
To return our pure faith in God and be blessed and protected in the dilemma.

I love this Show. During the Show, I am feeling passing through a long long journey of ancient historical stories which give me wonderful messages for the life. It changes my life... Now I appreciate more and more ancient values...

Why did they decide to include "BEFORE COMMUNISM" in their ads and posters? I can't tell if they're taking a cheap shot at the government of mainland China or just pandering to Chinese-born customers now living in the west?

Either way, they certainly did not reference communism when promoting the show in previous years.

[SurieJan]

Just saw this show and I must say it was truly a beautiful experience. My family and I were amazed by the intricate dances and how well the stories were told throughout the entire show. It truly gives you a glimpse of ancient Chinese culture and a glimpse of the world that once was. I recommend everyone to experience this amazing show.

I'm taking my oldest son to this show in my city tomorrow. It's living, moving, breathing art!

[escabasket]

I’ve been to China and they are lying about China not having places that perform ancient Chinese dances and culture.

[leadvillejim]

It's a beautiful experience, and you learn about China's rich history, and traditions (before communism), and the divinity within it. Truly special.

*I’m glad your company desires to dispel any negative thoughts someone could have against you because of the country you represent by showing you plan to go back to the roots of what made it great. Good luck to you and I hope you sell out every show. It is very much needed.*

[michaelwiesinger]

I'm in awe! This show makes me feel the greatness of the real chinese culture! And it gives me hope that China will come back with this rich spirit some day. Absolutely magnificent!

[djm]

This is so wonderful! I had the pleasure of witnessing you all in Buffalo, NY and it totally rearranged my heart & soul! I was able to take my friend just before he passed away. I am forever grateful!
