Shen Yun Performing Arts is halfway through its seven-show run at The Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.

[Ms. Barbieri, Financial Advisor]:
"The show was absolutely mesmerizing. I want to know how they made the magic go in to the handkerchiefs and become alive. I felt like I was up in the clouds watching the ladies, just make magic. The fairies in the clouds had me on the edge of my seat and I could not believe that the fans were not just going to fly away like birds."

It was a spiritual experience for one audience member.

[Mr. Shupert, VP, Human Resources, Medical Technology Company]:
"The show, for me was a very spiritual experience, right from the first performance. And you could tell that the performers really had an awful lot of passion, with every performance."

[...]

[Mr. Neal, VP of Investments, International Bank]:
"I thought it was wonderful. It taught me a lot about the Chinese culture. It gave me a really good insight to the different areas of China. And I think they represented a lot of the different cultures, which was really interesting."

Former U.S. Treasury staff, Ms. Rand, thought the show was well coordinated.

[Ms. Rand, Former U.S. Treasury Staff]:
"The coordination more than anything, that in every single story everyone was so well coordinated that you felt a flow in everything they did. There was nothing out of place, nothing that took your attention away from what they were doing.”

Mr. Shupert was stunned by one performance.

[Mr. Shupert, VP, Human Resources, Medical Technology Company]:
"The tenor, and when he had to step away from the microphone, I don't think he needed a microphone at all. He was just resonating, and listening to him sing and then watching the words up above, really gave the whole just true meaning and I was really stunned by the performance."
