“I felt blown away the first time I saw the performance,” said Wu Yu-Sheng, CEO of an education company. “Through an infusion of ancient and contemporary cultures, we saw Shen Yun’s virtuosity and competence.”
“When the curtain rose, the feeling of a wonderland was truly immersive. I knew (the performance demonstrates) 5,000 years of Chinese history and culture, and we indeed have a very deep cultural heritage,” said Mr. Wu’s wife Li Hsiu-Chih.
“The performance was superb, and the dancers were very well trained. You could see the dedication they put into the dancing, the culture, and the artistic training, and that made a fantastic performance,” said Lin Shin-Hsiung, the police chief of the city of Keelung.
“The colors, the dancers’ styling, and costumes. Wow, it really was gorgeous and made for a great experience,” said Mr. Wu.
“The laying out of the scenes, the smooth flow of the storytelling, and the sound. The whole show contains a lot of details, really full of details,” said Chang Shih-Ting, director of a medical technology company.
“The symphony was majestic, and the presentation and coordination of the instruments were excellent. It was a very strong feeling listening to it live,” said Mr. Lin.
Audience members echoed the values conveyed through the performance, saying they offer guidance in life.
“[The lyrics] on screen actually have a very deep revelation for us present-day people. I think while enjoying the show, we can think deeply about the future of our lives. It guides us toward a spiritually healthier life,” said Mr. Wu.
“I have had some frustrations in my life, buried in my heart, but because I saw such a team today, such a performance, and the dedication of everyone, I think I have to be more broad-minded in life,” said Li Li-chin, owner of a sportswear company.
“It’s rare to find a show that interprets Eastern culture so precisely and beautifully, so I found it a wonderful feast for both the eyes and the ears,” said Mr. Chang.
