embarking on time travel... The show was excellent, the content rich, the stage effects were amazing, unique and it was a large scale
one-of-a-kind arts event... MORE > If you just watch the video, you can only see the technique and physical movements. But seeing it live, you're able to experience the strong artistic impact and the show's infectiousness. What is most unusual is that every year the shows have a new program.. It is a great achievement, a great thing that Shen Yun was formed and developed overseas and able to promote traditional Chinese culture on the global stage... Watching Shen Yun is just like embarking on time travel, reflecting on one's life and artistic experience... Their [Shen Yun peformers'] passion for the arts and for bringing the beauty of arts to audiences is really touching... If you just watch the promo video, you can only see the technique and physical movements. But seeing it live, you're able to experience the strong artistic impact and the show's infectiousness. The kind of internal charm, and the energy transmitted by the performance can only be experienced by watching a live show... The show was excellent, the content rich, the stage effects were amazing, unique and it was a large scale one-of-its-own-kind arts event."
