Everything You Need to Know About Shen Yun
Shen Yun Performing Arts was founded in New York in 2006 with a mission to revive the essence of traditional Chinese culture through the performing arts. The name itself translates roughly to "the beauty of divine beings dancing," and the production lives up to that description at every turn. The company fields some of the most technically accomplished classical Chinese dancers in the world, trained from youth in the demanding traditions of classical Chinese dance — a discipline with thousands of years of history.
Each Shen Yun program features a series of individually distinct dance pieces that draw from Chinese history, mythology, and regional folk traditions, ranging from the Han dynasty to the Tang dynasty and beyond. The live orchestra that accompanies every performance is itself a landmark achievement: Shen Yun blends traditional Chinese instruments including the erhu and pipa with the full force of a Western symphony orchestra, creating a sound that is entirely its own.
The production's use of a patented, animated backdrop technology elevates the visual storytelling to a level that no other touring company replicates. Dancers appear to leap into painted mountain landscapes or descend from celestial clouds, with the digital imagery precisely synchronized to the live performance. Atlanta audiences who have seen Shen Yun in previous years consistently describe it as one of the most memorable live experiences of their lives.
