(Clearwisdom.net) Shen Yen's last performance at New York's famed Radio City Music Hall took place on Sunday, February 21, 2010. Inspirational author Tabitha Vinson said after the show, "Everybody should be able to come to see this, to be able to ... grasp, just to be able to get ideas, to be inspired."

"A friend of mine had asked me to attend this, and when I saw it, and myself being a dancer, to be able to see all of the dance attire, the colors, the spiritual meaning, the spiritual undertones--it was such a blessing to be able to see," she said.
