SHEN YUN offers an exhilarating world-class production that celebrates the excellence and grandeur of classical Chinese dance and music. It draws inspiration from the legends, values, and spirit that defined traditional Chinese culture for centuries.
During its 2009 world tour, Shen Yun performed over 320 successful shows in over 100 cities around the world, delighting the hearts of over 1 million people of all ages and backgrounds. It graced the world¡¯s most prestigious stages, from Radio City Music Hall, Kennedy Center in Washington DC, Kodak Theatre, Palais des Congres de Paris, to National Arts Centre in Ottawa, etc.
In January 2010, Shen Yun is returning to San Francisco Bay Area, and will perform 10 days 13 stunning shows in San Francisco Opera House, San Jose Center for the Performing Arts and Sacramento Community Center Theater.
Shen Yun received rave reviews from audience members, and has created a miracle in the performing arts industry.
Weaving a wondrous story of heavenly realms, enchanting dreams, and the classic struggle between good and evil, the show's breathtaking pageantry evokes themes of virtue, compassion, and courage which have lain at the heart of China's culture since antiquity. Story-based dances portray topics ranging from ancient tales of valor to modern-day epics such as that of Falun Dafa - the spiritual practice that has been brutally persecuted by the communist regime for almost a decade. In the wake of the tragic erosion of traditional Chinese culture under decades of communist rule, New York-based Shen Yun Performing Arts endeavors to rediscover a lost artistic and cultural heritage.
Marvel at fresh new dances intermingled with old favorites, featuring a superb cast of dancers, singers, and musicians. You will be spellbound by the brilliant choreography, stunning costumes, and state-of-the-art dynamic backdrops. Here's your chance to savor an uplifting, enriching experience that has charmed and delighted people of all ages, Western and Asian alike.
