About

Shen Yun Performing Arts is a triumph of collaboration, bringing together over a hundred of the world's foremost classically trained Chinese dancers, choreographers, musicians, and vocalists. It also boasts the world's only full orchestra that embraces both Western and Chinese instruments as its permanent members. 

Based in New York, Shen Yun Performing Arts is distinguished by its conscious effort to remain independent of China's communist regime, which has abused and impoverished the arts for decades. It is proud to thus include members who practice Falun Gong. The company aspires to create original performances that not only entertain, but also more deeply educate, enrich, and inspire. The company's rich repertory is drawn from the pages of history, universal themes, and the world around us. All choreography and music performed are original.

    Venue was great

    by SherStPete on 5/7/24Duke Energy Center for the Arts - Mahaffey Theater - St Petersburg

    This show was not what I had expected. I found it to be a bit religious, which is not a bad thing. I expected more aerial during the performance, however the backscreen was a very nice effect. The costumes were pretty on the women & I loved the way they flowed across the floor. This is a show i would not see again.

    A magical evening

    by Rich on 5/7/24Orpheum Theatre - Minneapolis

    Shen Yun was a very athletic event. I did not expect that. The performance was extremely beautiful. Not only did we have a performance on stage, but we also had a three-dimensional video background which became the performers on stage. The coordination between the background and the performance was an absolute delight to behold. We had a wonderful day and evening. Shen Yun was the frosting on the cake. The only reason that I didn't give a five-star rating is because I was unable to clearly understand what the narrators said. Even though I was using hearing aids, I couldn't hear what they said.

    Worth seeing once - Terrible audience behavior

    by Showgoer007 on 5/7/24Duke Energy Center for the Arts - Mahaffey Theater - St Petersburg

    This was my first time seeing the show and the technical aspect of the dancing and acrobatics was truly incredible. The visual aspects of the costumes and props had some really beautiful moments. The singers and specialty musicians were incredible. Some of the stories were…. Odd, and the computer/projection effects for the background were almost distracting in a way that did not enhance the show. The disrespectfulness of the audience was unbelievable. The amount of talking, getting up and down all throughout the entire show, leaving before it was finished, leaving their trash behind was just embarrassing. The show was worth seeing once. Essentially it was the same dancing on repeat and just a little bit too long, but the artists are truly talented.

    Repetitious

    by GG on 5/7/24Duke Energy Center for the Arts - Mahaffey Theater - St Petersburg

    The colorful costumes were beautiful, the performers graceful, and the backdrop screen was very clever. However, the dancing was repetitive after the first few. Would not go again.

    Incredible dancers, beautiful backdrops, colorful costumes

    by Serenity on 5/7/24Duke Energy Center for the Arts - Mahaffey Theater - St Petersburg

    One cannot deny the talent of the dancer, who seemed to float through the air. The "interactive"backdrops reminded me of a country filled with beautiful mountains, lakes, and architecture. The costumes were colorful, and enhanced the grace and beauty of the female dancers. Overall, I preferred watching the lovely ladies, with their various "group"formations. Some of the story-telling performances reminded me of the old "keystone cops"shows, and the music during that period was too repetitive.

    Beautiful Dance & Costumes

    by Aimwah on 5/7/24Orpheum Theatre - Minneapolis

    My 14 year old and I went to this over the weekend, and OH MY GOSH, the dance, acrobatics, costumes were AMAZING. These dancers are so talented. That said, there were also several scenes where I was just wondering “what?” For example, this amazing singer came on stage for a solo performance, and the lyrics were translated and written on a screen. The lyrics included things like “atheism and evolution are deadly ideas,” and “modern trends destroy what makes us human.” We were very confused. While we really loved & appreciated the dance & costumes, we decided that we would probably not ever need to go again.

    A Beautiful Blend of East & West

    by Matty'O on 5/6/24Orpheum Theatre - Minneapolis

    This was the third time I've gone to see Shen Yun, and once more they did not disappoint. The adaptions of classical Chinese story telling mixed with largely Western musical accompaniment brings the past to present in wonderous Ways. And the way they don't shy away from their stance against the vile evils of the athiest communist CCP is nothing shy of commendable and applaudable. Have no doubt, Shen Yun is worth of seeing year after year, and is well worth your time and the cost of admission!

    Must See

    by Shepard on 5/6/24Duke Energy Center for the Arts - Mahaffey Theater - St Petersburg

    Shen Yun was one of the best performances we have ever had the pleasure of watching. The artists are absolutely amazing, from the dancers to the orchestra, everyone was mind-blowing. Do not miss the opportunity to see Shen Yun. If you're asking yourself, "Is it worth it?"Let me tell you, without a doubt, it is the best money you'll ever spend. We had the pleasure of being in seats I-13, I-14, front row, center stage. We had the best seats in the house. I don't know how we got so lucky, but for the $400 we spent on this performance, it was worth every penny. It was a night we'll never forget. We hope you read this review, and book your tickets for next year's show. We hope to see you there!

    You gotta see it for yourself

    by Nina on 5/6/24Duke Energy Center for the Arts - Mahaffey Theater - St Petersburg

    Great performance that was interactive, entertaining and educational. The screen technology used pulled the audience to another dimension in the blink of an eye - awesome! The dancers seem to ‘spring’ through the air at amazing speed/ height so skillfull and precise. You gotta see it for yourself.
