“Really awesome... It disseminates universal values through exquisite artistic performance,” said Lin Chia-lung, the mayor of Taichung City.
“It’s an innovative development... It also spreads some universal values by way of traditional approaches such as classical Chinese dance and oriental music,” he said.
“The notion that evil can never prevail over good is implied in historical stories and is performed through artistic performance with an easily understandable storyline to make it more acceptable to everyone,” Mr. Lin said.
“Felt very comfortable”

“With the dance techniques, the digital backdrops, and all the other artistic and cultural elements, it is a great feast. I felt very comfortable after watching it,” she said.
“Top show of the world”

“Shen Yun gives one a soft and gentle feeling. The color combinations seemed to be those of the heavens. It made me feel very happy,” said Li An-hsing, a professor at National Chiayi University.
“One would yearn for colors like those. Environments and settings like those cannot be seen in the human world. [Shen Yun] probably is helped by heavenly forces. It makes one very moved after watching it,” he said.

“Every time I watch Shen Yun, it feels like a new life has sprouted... Because it can cleanse your dirt again,” Mr. Huang said.
“It keeps helping our souls wake up... The most important is that it tells us where the future leads people,” he added.
