Company Owners Bring Family to Shen Yun to See China’s Ancient Traditions

Shen Yun Performing Arts returned to Billings, Montana, for two performances. Audience members marveled at its beauty and purpose. “Just uplifting, just really, really beautiful. ... It releases you from the daily grind of what you're dealing with,” said Daniel Laffin, police chief of Lovell, Wyoming. “If you think about 5,000 years ago, we did not have social media, we were not in communication,” said his wife Nicolle Laffin, owner of Mustang Mountain Vineyard. “And we all share the same things—art and music and science and math and religion as well, and moral values. And it wasn't just one culture that did that. We all do that. And I think that's something that resonates for us as a species.” “I think there's religious undertones that go throughout all of the dance and the maneuvers and things that they're doing, and of course, the things that they're saying and singing. That adds kind of a different dimension to it. So I think the spiritual, religious aspect, the cultural aspect, and then the political aspect really works well in the show,” said Daniel Catone, CEO of Golden State Wealth Management LLC.
