Artist: You'll Remember Shen Yun for a Long Time

Shen Yun Performing Arts is giving more than two dozen performances this week throughout the United States and Europe. "It was just a rare form of art," said Melony Stuckey, a painter and artist who saw Shen Yun with her friend in Columbia, South Carolina. "It was amazing, just beautiful. ... The color of the choreography, it was just beautiful. The storyline, we really felt like we were in it." "The costumes, the set, the music, everything just combined was just stunning," said her friend Mandy Summers Smith, a gallery owner and certified interior decorator. For Michael Gasque, deputy director of Interservice Postal Training Activity in the U.S. Army, the performance was really "a learning experience." "Motivational to myself and inspirational," said Gasque, who also saw the performance in Columbia. "I was just very happy I could do this and come out and bring my mother-in-law who's 90 years old. And I don't regret it a bit." Audiences say Shen Yun is more than just entertaining; it is also thought-provoking.
