"Very well done. The choreography, their performance, the way they dance, the way they organize. It’s very well done and a very high-value show," said Domenico Di Mola, vice president of engineering at a high-tech company.
Jean Donaldson, founder of The Academy for Dog Trainers, said: "We were very, very impressed with the breadth of scope everything from modern-day stories, to ones from thousands of years ago to ones from rural China. We thought it was all very imaginative."
"It was just a wonderful cultural display of China's greatness before, unfortunately, the dark ages of communism," said Kevin Murray, a retired politics professor.
"We were just thrilled to see such a fantastic display of artistry, coordination, balance and storytelling," Mr. Murray said.
He watched the performance with Ariel Carey-Murray, a former psychology professor.
"It's something that can capture the audience, and it can really make it so we are part of a story, we are part of an adventure, but we are also part of an emotional history that cannot be erased by a regime or by a people's," she said.
"It's very, very powerful," Ms. Carey-Murray said.
Many say it’s more than just a performance.
"There was a huge message of hope," said Melanie Salazar, executive director of Pro-Life San Francisco.
