Shen Yun Performing Arts brought traditional Chinese culture to Lublin, Poland, on Jan. 12 through 14. Audience members marveled at the artistry and said it was a feast for the soul.
“A feast for the soul, to be honest. I don’t have the words to describe it,” said Magdalena Michalska-Borowiec, a doctor. “I just feel so relaxed. I have never experienced that before in the theater.”
“All the graphics, the transition, the entry into the screen takes you into a fairy tale. Very amazing, I haven’t seen anything like that in my life,” said Monika Ożóg-Matusik, a dance choreographer and dance instructor.
“It is an amazing experience for me. Moving, emotional, full of passion, amazing dynamics and color. It was such a very impressive performance, which moved me a lot,” said Monika Holszewska, an actress. “The instruments, the wonderful music, the two-stringed instrument … it stirred up huge emotions in me, and I just cried.”
“This is such a very profound experience for me. This is the first time I have encountered something like this,” said Stanisław Chłosta, a business owner.
Shen Yun’s mission is to revive 5,000 years of divinely inspired culture before communism, through classical Chinese dance and music. Theatergoers said they received a message from the performance.
“This connection to the divine is available to all of us, to give kindness, goodness, compassion, beauty and spread it further,” said Nela Mitukiewicz-Wiesner, a choreographer.
“You can experience wonderful moments and leave with a smile, joy, and peace of mind,” said Danuta Wojtaszko, an entrepreneur. “To be happy, cheerful, and a good person, and to spread that kindness to others.”
“The quality of the performance, the quality of the choreographic and dance preparation, and the multi-faceted nature of this show in general, certainly brings it to the rank of a work of art,” said Krzysztof Petkowicz, an actor.
“I think I will share this artistic and spiritual experience, it’s worth seeing. These emotions remain with you long after the performance is over,” said Mitukiewicz-Wiesner.
Shen Yun will be performing in Łódź in Poland from Jan. 17 through 19.
