Shen Yun

Becoming a new Holiday tradition, Shen Yun Performing Arts makes its triumphant return to the Dallas/Fort Worth area with its all new 2010 program that’s leaving millions in awe worldwide. There will be three shows on February 5th and 6th at the Music Hall at Fair Park.
During its 2009 world tour, Shen Yun performed over 320 shows in more than 100 cities across 20 countries, delighting the hearts of 800,000 people of all ages and backgrounds. It has graced the world’s most prestigious stages including Radio City Music Hall, Kennedy Center in Washington DC, Palais des Congres de Paris, and London Royal Festival Hall.
Shen Yun received rave reviews from audience members, and has created a miracle in the performing arts industry.
“The best! The best! The best!” says Charles Wadsworth, the founding artistic director of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, USA.
“Five stars, that’s the top.” says Richard Connema, critic from Talkin' Broadway, who has reviewed 3000 to 4000 Broadway shows.

Calling Shen Yun “a great job bringing together the history of Chinese culture”, Dr. Amerigo Fabbri, Dean of the Pierson College, Yale University said, “The sound effects, the visual effects, the special effects, the singing, and the dancing—it’s just amazing... The most touching, the closest to us as human beings, was [the dance] The Power of Awareness.”

“It was the most extraordinary cultural show I've ever experienced. The nation’s capital is not an ordinary city anymore, but a top world-class cultural city, thanks to this spectacle…” says Prof. Cyril Dabydeen, University of Ottawa, distinguished writer and poet.
China was once called the “Land of the Divine”, and its people believed their culture to be a gift from the heavens. People emphasized virtue and devoted themselves to spiritual quest. This gave traditional Chinese culture profound inner meaning. Sadly, this great culture has been destroyed under the Chinese Communist Party’s rule.
Now New York based Shen Yun Performing Arts is seeking to revive and breathe new life into traditional Chinese culture, while providing an experience of sublime beauty.
Through the language of classical Chinese dance and music, Shen Yun weaves stories of heavenly realms, ancient heroic legends and modern stories of courage, leaving audiences uplifted and inspired.
With performances featuring the roar of thunderous drums from the remote Yellow Emperor’s times, or the elegance of the ladies of the Tang imperial court who dance with the flowing silken sleeves, Shen Yun’s classical Chinese dance transports audiences back in time. Additionally, you will witness colorful, distinctive folk and ethnic dances that allow you to celebrate the joys of the vibrant Tibetan people living by snow-capped mountains, or immerse yourself amidst stunning bursts of exuberant spring blossoms…
With a superb cast of about 100 of the internationally-acclaimed performers, stunning costumes and backdrops, magnificent choreography, an innovative full orchestra that combines eastern and western instruments together, Shen Yun is not to be missed.
