Catch this vibrant jubilee of classical Chinese culture when it comes to the Wang this April.

Based in New York since 2006, Shen Yun Performing Arts tours the world with traditional Chinese performances like folk dance and story-based dance, along with solo performers. Shen Yun means “the beauty of divine beings dancing.”

With dazzling backdrops, radiant costumes, and incredible talent, Shen Yun tells the story of China’s thousands of years of civilization in one stage performance. In about 20 different segments, the performers span dynasties, regions, and ancient legends of China—from magical realms of fairies to heroically fought battles to elegant Tang dynasty court ladies.

Shen Yun celebrates the rich cultural heritage of China—Buddhist and Taoist values mingle with ancient Chinese wisdom, while artistic innovations in dance, opera, architecture, and martial arts all shine in Shen Yun’s stage performance. The show also touches on today’s China, in which religion and spiritual beliefs are often repressed.
