An unmatched theatrical experience

Shen Yun 2012- For Chinese, the words evoke a sense of wonder, magic, and the divine. To audiences who have seen it, they recall the experience of a lifetime—a moment so powerfully beautiful it touches the soul. Discover the grandeur of a fantastically rich culture, that of classical China, brought to life through brilliantly choreographed dance and mesmerizing, all-original orchestral compositions. Magnificently costumed dancers—the world’s elite—move in poetic arrangements that evoke pastoral beauty, imperial drama, and the glory of an ancient civilization. This season, discover what art was meant to be. Discover Shen Yun.

More than an art— a way of being.

SHEN YUN PERFORMERS are selected from among the top classical artists in the world. Every year, they come from all corners of the globe to an idyllic campus in upstate New York. This is where their mastery of their craft takes shape into a new production. And this is where a most magical revival of true Chinese culture begins…

The people of China have long held that their magnificent culture was a gift from the heavens. Art was primarily a means to explore the connection between humankind and the higher universe. Artists cultivated virtue because they felt that to create art worthy of the divine, there must first be inner beauty and purity.
