Famous Poet and Artist, They Looked Like Supernatural Beings Descending to the World
Artist Chu Ge is a poet and good at watercolor painting and sculpturing. He had dealt with antique classifications for a long time and his handwriting is very well-known. He said, "The performance reveals the effect of classic Chinese dance. The backdrops and the movements of the dancers complement each other perfectly. It is rare to see such design. My favorite is the starting piece, 'Descent of the Celestial Kings'. It looks like supernatural beings descending to the world."
He added, "I am deaf but I could hear the rhythm of the drums."
  Famous artist expressed that watching the performance was very helpful for his artistic creation |
Famous Artist, There are many things worthy of being studied.
Famous artist, Zhao Ziqiang is a Master of Ceremonies (MC) and leader of a children's drama troupe. He was awarded twice in a row the Golden Bell for Best MC in a children's program. After watching the first performance at Taipei, he said, "This is a wonderful show. I have seen so many overseas Chinese like performing arts and they put original traditional culture into the performance. It is really marvelous. In April, our children's troupe will conduct a performance, which is related to an ancient Chinese story. We were able to receive many inspirations and things to study from this performance."

Renowned Costume Designer Appreciated the Costumes
Renowned Hong Kong costume designer Feng Qiwen said, "All programs are very good, including the most touching piece 'The Loyal Yuefei', very touching. I was very much moved as we Chinese had quite an astonishing history. 'The Water Sleeves' is also quite good. 'Tang Court Drums' is wonderful and very touching. I think that it is good in every aspect. I really appreciate the costumes!"

"In one's life, the most important thing is to understand what is good and what is bad. Life is short and we only have a short time to be together. We should pass on freedom, and the best things of the Chinese to the world. We are in a country with the longest history. And the Divine Performing Arts does this." He said that he heard about the performance in Japan too. But at that time, he had a misunderstanding about it, due to the propaganda of the CCP. After watching the performance he stated, "Seeing is believing. All my misunderstandings have been cleared away."
