Shen Yun Tickets

We watched this show a while back and it’s boring. The dance routines are the same. They’re not that extravagant. I wouldn’t waste my $$$. My family were falling asleep watching the show. We left early and didn’t finish the show.

The dancing and music was beautiful, but it ended up being a lot of propaganda about their cult, Falun Dafa. I would never have supported it if I had known what it was really about.

Always wanted to see this for the last 5 yrs or so. I went in as always reading about the shows . We knew of the overtone that came with it ,and being a humanist with faith in a higher power, it wasn't like what haters say. Opening act set the tone. The stories and visuals were excellent. Costumes were colorful and flowing. The choreography and acrobatics were insink with each other. Everyone working there was so nice. We can all take the best of that with us home and share with others each and everyday of our lives. A step back in time and understanding a totally different culture that is mimicking our lives today. Support the company, for they give us such beauty in ART. Thank you , Shen Yun We will see you in December ,

If you're looking for a night filled with dazzling costumes and somewhat decent dancing, then you might almost get your money's worth. Almost. But don't let those traditional Chinese costumes blind you from the real agenda behind the show: religious propaganda wrapped in a flimsy veil of folklore and mysticism. The show starts out promising but then devolves into religious propaganda for a cult that claims martial arts will lead you to enlightenment. Who knew that a roundhouse kick was the key to spiritual awakening? Move over, Buddha and Confucius – it’s time for a high-flying punch to the divine! And the inclusivity? Top-notch if you're not into freedom of religion. Watching the "performance", I couldn't help but marvel at how expertly they managed to cram in outdated, bigoted views under the guise of theology. It's like getting a side of hate speech with your spring rolls. Yum! So, if you're into being subtly indoctrinated while watching people flip around on the stage, Shen Yun is the show for you. As for me, I'll stick to real martial arts movies where the only propaganda is to eat more popcorn.

We left the show with a feeling that we were somehow being evangelized rather than entertained. If we had known that the show leaned that way we would have thought harder before shelling out all of that money for admission. Technically the show was well done and beautiful, however the overshadowing themes were kind of a turn-off. There should be more up-front information on what the show is actually doing.

I was so impressed by how the people moved in and out of the background. The performers have incredible strength to be able to do all the moves that they do.

Shen Yun is a beautiful, culture experience. The talent that the dancers, singers, and musicians are Extraordinary. The stories they tell, connect to your heart and soul. It is so enjoyable from beginning to end. The hosts are so delightful in the way they work together both in English and Chinese. I very much enjoyed the experience with my mom.

We enjoyed the agility, expression & skillful dancing. But we were disappointed to experience 4 pieces that I can only describe as religious propaganda. While I support the first amendment & the group’s freedom of religious expression, they should have provided notice during the ticket purchase process or earlier, so we could have decided if we wanted to support this group’s religious expression. It was also a little disappointing that they repeated some moves in different pieces.

The show and costumes were exceptional, as well as the dancing. The soloists who performed were also excellent, as was the interaction with the digital background (very interesting how they did that). The show was great, if a little long.

Not at all what we expected. Boring and political.we left at intermission. The best part was that it was way overpriced!
