“I was crying with the beauty of it—it’s so all-encompassing. And then when you put in the music, it's so powerful. It gives me chills, truthfully,” said Charlie Adler, a business owner. “The music—if it doesn't affect your soul, then there's something wrong with you. The colors and the dances and the flying material and everyone in synchronization—it's something that every person should get to see at least once in their life.”
“I was impressed. I thought the singers were very good. The tenor had a beautiful voice, and most of all, the erhu—the skill that was involved in playing that instrument. I haven't seen better with a stringed instrument, it was impressive,” said Katherine Yost, a choir director.
“The colors of your costumes were just so amazing. Everything was just so vibrant and just show-stopping. Every performance was so show-stopping, and the amount of feelings and emotions that we got from all of those were so amazing,” said Kim White-Young, a senior operations administrator.
“I really like it. It's exciting, and very interesting. I like the culture, the colors, and something about the choreography, it's very entertaining,” said Owen Yam, a surgeon.
“There's an underlying beauty in China that communism will never be able to kill—ever, ever, no matter what,” said Adler.
“It seemed like the original China. In the beginning, everything was so simple. Everybody was able to communicate. It was a comfortable life. And now there's so much adversity and so much judgment, and it's a much harder world to live in. And you can see that in the different dances and the different ways that they express themselves,” said Christopher Kelley, a business owner.
“It's lovely because there's so much heavenly beauty, which I think is what they're trying to convey. So that was my favorite thing about it,” said Yost.
