Inspired by 5000 years history and tradition, Shen Yun Performing Arts is considered the most authentic cultural observance in the world. Creating one of the most visually stunning experiences on stage, Shen Yun features brilliant traditional dances, songs and symphony (Please visit http://ShenYunPerformingArts.org for details). Its mission is to revive the spirit of traditional Chinese culture. It is not only enjoyable, but also educational, enriching and elevating.
At the core of Shen Yun’s performances is classical Chinese dance, and China’s numerous ethnic and folk dance styles round out the evening along with masterful vocalists and musicians. A live orchestra blends East and West, thunderous drums shake the stage, and spectacular backdrops transport you to another world.In a collection of short pieces, audiences travel from the Himalayas to tropical lake-filled regions; from the legends of the culture’s creation over 5,000 years ago to contemporary tales of courage; from the highest heavens down to the dusty plateaus of the Middle Kingdom.
As highly commented by the arts community, Shen Yun showcases the true traditional Chinese culture through stunning state-of-the-art backdrop projection of dynamic scenery, gorgeous ancient Chinese costumes, original choreography and music. It brings China’s splendid history to life, and goes beyond entertainment to a realm of pageantry that the world has not seen since the days of the great emperors.
Shen Yun Performing Arts has visited more than 100 cities in Europe, Asia, North America, South America and Australia. It has been shown in top venues such as the Lincoln Center in New York, the Kennedy Center Opera House in Washington DC, Royal Festival Hall in London and Le Palais de Congres in Paris.. You can also watch a four-minute Shen Yun introduction video at http://www.shenyunperformingarts.org/videos (This allows you to see the beauty of the show).
