So misleading. Came for the traditional vibes and hanfu, but got hit with a super political sermon instead. Hard pass. Not my cup of tea at all.

My son watches Shenyun since 4 years old till now 16
My son watch Shenyun since 4years old.
I purchased tickets in the last line at the corner at that time. Because I didn’t want him to bother any others in the middle of the show. He was a very active boy
He was focused on the show and clapped with his small hands with one by one program. He watched the show from the beginning till end. I was shocked. He so enjoyed Shenyun.
Right now 16 years old, he becomes Shenyun fan. After 2026 show, he told me, Mom I was inspired. I want to become better and better.
No words can describe a mother heart to thank Shenyun to bring so beautiful feeling for my kids.
Thank you Shenyun 🙏🙏🙏
An inspiring performance
On January 31, 2026, my family and I saw the Shen Yun performance at the Taipei Performing Arts Center. The entire show filled me with such a positive and uplifting energy—from the stories to the colors and the music. My absolute favorite parts were the scenes depicting the heavenly realms, which were so full of hope and light. My daughter loved the Monkey King piece the most because it was so lively and fun, while my husband’s favorite was the story showing that good will ultimately triumph over evil. I think this performance is truly special. It reminded us of our connection to the divine and inspired us to hold onto our kindness and courage. I feel so incredibly lucky and blessed.
A Truly Breathtaking Experience—My Second Time Watching Shen Yun
I attended the Shen Yun performance on the afternoon of Saturday, March 28 this year—my second time seeing the show—and once again, I was truly amazed.
Both performances left a deep impression on me. The combination of expressive dance, stunning stage design, and the dynamic digital backdrop brought each story vividly to life. The storytelling was engaging and beautifully presented, and the variety of Chinese ethnic dances was simply breathtaking.
What moved me most was the sense of pure visual beauty—it felt like my mind was completely refreshed and uplifted. I left the theater in a wonderful mood. Even the audience around me couldn’t stop praising the performance.
I highly recommend it to anyone—this is truly a show worth experiencing
A superb show
A superb show! Shen Yuns performance is a window in to the true beauty of the classical Chinese culture, free from communistic influences. And what a skilled ensemble! Everyone should see it!
Totally Blew My Mind
I’m from Japan and I was so fortunate to catch Shen Yun this year at Lincoln Center in New York.
Wow — it completely blew me away. The entire show gave me this amazing feeling of traveling through time. The dancing is unbelievably elegant yet full of power, and the performers’ skill level is just insane. But what really got me was the deeper message. The performances make you reflect on life, humanity, and what it all means in such a beautiful way.
It was truly moving and uplifting. If you’re thinking about going, just do it — you won’t regret it!

An Inspiring Evening of Hope and Joy
I first attended Shen Yun on March 29 and was so captivated that I returned on April 4 at 6:00 p.m. to share the experience with my husband. It was a profoundly spiritual experience—a perfect blend of stunning beauty and inner peace. ❤️ We were especially impressed by the exquisite handmade costumes and the live orchestra that harmonizes Eastern and Western instruments. This breathtaking cultural journey truly moves the spirit, and we both left the theater feeling uplifted and enlightened! ✨ Highly recommended for anyone seeking inspiration. 🌈
Shen Yun is a beautiful graceful show
The show was amazing. So colourful and the performers were very talented and grateful in their dance. It’s lovely to be able to go to a show that has wholesome values, where anyone of all ages can go to. Yes I will be recommending this to people.
Energy, beauty, elegance ..
Energy of the movements by the dancers and beautiful music from the live orchestra artists made the show unforgettable …. The beauty that Shenyun brought me made me almost cry … real art ….. recommending Shenyun to anyone… come and experience it !

I was born in China but grew up in the U.S. Shen Yun did a fantastic job presenting China before communism, a splendid period that very few have seen. The beautiful legends and heroic characters reminded me of the good morales people in the past carried. I was moved to tears by the values manifest in the show. Very rare in today’s world. Great for families and anyone who’s into culture and history. (P.S. the CCP has for years tried to sabotage this performance. My advice is to take a grain of salt with the 1 star comments, as they’re likely paid to criticize this dance group. You gotta go check out the show yourself to decide. Don’t buy the CCP propaganda against Shen Yun.)
Shen Yun is the best show
Shen Yun is the best show I’ve ever seen and experienced. The choreography is top notch-the costumes, the orchestra, and the animation in the backdrop all perfectly synchronized with dancers on the stage. The precision is incredible. The vibrant colors combined with the women dancers’ gentle yet strenuous movements as well as the men dancers’ powerful tumbling and flips are incomparable. I particularly liked their story telling. The performance is very inspiring. Highly recommend it to everyone!

Shen Yun was a deeply disappointing experience to me. They are masters of great advertising but the show reminded me of my high school plays . I much more enjoyed Chinese Children Acrobatics show in Disneyland than this cheaply made show. Waste of money. The tickets should be no more than $30 . Don't fall for their spectacular advertising campaigns. Scam
