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.
First saw the show two years ago, have been going every year. Really enjoy the performance and the message the show carries. These days most performance carries messages that are quite negative, it's so hard to find artistically wonderful and also educational shows like Shen Yun. I would recommend it to people, especially if you want to do something wonderful together as a family.
I've seen Shen Yun at least 2 times, and each time it takes you to a most wonderful place both outside and inside. It makes your whole being just tingle! One simply bathes in the beauty of the music, dances, and colorful costumes while the mind and heart is lifted ever, and ever higher by the stories that are presented and the songs that are sung. China's history in it's purest and finest form... So hard to put into words....it is a "must- see" kind of show...at least once in your lifetime!!!

You do NOT want to miss this show. Seriously. It’s purely AMAZING. The choreography was so extraordinary, and the lavishly colorful costumes were so beautiful. The dancers were extremely agile and the lines were so perfect. I like it that they put on an animated backdrop that added depth to the performance, and also let you grab the storyline more easily. It has an astounding visual effect. Though it’s presenting Chinese legends and history (in the tastiest artistic form), I did not have any difficulty in understanding the content. Oh, and the music, it could only be called heavenly! I was fortunate enough to get a seat close to the orchestra pit. Never seen that kind of orchestra before! Elegant Chinese musical instruments added on to violins and trumpets, producing a unique sound effect – very soothing, very uplifting. If only Shen Yun could release the soundtracks. Overall, this is definitely a worthy and enriching experience. I can’t wait to see it again!
Had some really good dancers, awsome lines, and a lot of really well cordinated moves during the ribbon dances with multiple dancers. Over all I loved it.
