“[Shen Yun’s] mission is very important; it's very interesting. I want to understand the culture more, to understand the show more deeply,” said Giulio Passarini, a dentist.
“The show was very good. The desire to present China from a cultural and spiritual point of view, but also a desire for freedom, I felt compared to the current Chinese system is very strong. The message comes through very, very clearly,” said Giampaolo Lavagetto, a doctor.
“It communicates the importance of spirituality and in this world, where atheism, although not overt, is still out there. This is a show that wants to bring us back to tolerance, to compassion, to truth, to these values,” said Bianca Brotto, an author.
Davide Fusco is an artistic director for Camus - ShowUp Productions. He said, “Oftentimes, we tend to think of China in other respects, but the message here has definitely come through, because it is a message of hope and tolerance, but above all, a great, great, great passion that is evident in the stories that they tell in the show.”
“The message [I got] is that we come from above, our heavenly kingdom, so that we can bring a message of hope to this Earth, and then be called back when our mission here on this Earth, on this world, has ended,” said Cristopher D'Addario, a bank manager at La Cassa di Ravenna S.p.A.
“Tradition is fundamental, a country that has no culture or traditions has no future,” said Mr. Lavagetto.
Shen Yun will stop in Udine, Italy, from Jan. 29 to Jan. 30.
