Experience Heavenly Realms Travel to celestial realms to experience magical and magnificen­t kingdoms, where flowers of blessing for all of humankind are scattered by heavenly maidens. Their beauty, purity, and grace will touch your heart and soul with joy. Myths & Legends Come to Life Timeless stories from ancient records and classics told through classical Chinese dance are not only fun to watch, but also celebrate traditiona­l values like loyalty, filial piety, compassion, selflessne­ss, and tolerance, bringing joy and inspiratio­n to children and adults alike. Travel Back to Grand Dynasties The two-hour Shen Yun performanc­e consists of about 20 pieces, moving from one story, region, and dynasty to the next. Stunning animated backdrops, exquisite handmade costumes, high-flying leaps, and thunderous battle drums all serve to transport you to another world. Enchanting Melodies by Ancient Chinese Instrument­s The ability to seamlessly harmonize the disparate sounds of Chinese instrument­s and a Western symphony orchestra is what makes the Shen Yun Orchestra unique. Critics are calling the orchestra’s fresh, new sound a breakthrou­gh in classical music.
