“It just makes you feel good. Gives us hope in this world that things can go on, and the beautiful music and beautiful dancing,” said Jim Long, a former law enforcement officer.
“It was very exciting. Very colorful, very vibrant. The jumping in and out of the background was very unique. It was very interesting,” said Brad Smith, a former company senior planner.
“It touched me a lot when I found that the dancing was going to depict culture and religion, and I’d like to know more about it,” said Mike Mack, a former engineer.
“That was particularly resonant and made me feel even more so for those of you who are connected with this and do this performance, knowing you’re putting yourself at risk to show how strongly you believe and keep that cultural aspect, that long, long cultural history awake and be reborn with people that will be open to it,” said Dan Hechenberger, a former professor.
“I think the take home message is your performance is deeply, deeply held. You’re putting your beliefs, you’re putting them out for the world to see. You want to help people that want to recover this culture and history be able to see pieces of it that have been hidden from them and forcibly hidden,” he said.
“It’s eye opening to see different cultures and how they come forward from back in time to today. It’s very enlightening to watch the different cultures,” said Mr. Smith.
