Shen Yun 'Sends Important Messages' to the World: Paris Audience

Shen Yun wrapped up 7 performances in Paris on February 19th at the Palais des Congrès. Each year, Shen Yun brings a whole new production to the stage aiming to revive China’s 5000 years of culture, which is said to be divinely inspired. "I feel like I am in a dream, and I am amazed ... even more by the Chinese culture," said Sonia Ben El Haj, who is a lawyer and a professor at Sciences Po University. Philippe Drobinski is a research director at the CNRS, specialized in meteorology and climatology. On Saturday, Feb. 18, he came to experience Shen Yun Performing Arts at the Palais des Congrès. “It’s poetry!” he said enthusiastically. “The performances are just incredible. The dancers are outstanding and the story is just incredible!” "The artistic level is just—it's the top of what's really being done. The jumps, it combines both the flexibility of the movements and then with that, athletic performances that are just incredible," he added. "It is grandiose. It's full of beauty. The dancers are very, very graceful," said Gérard Motto, who is the president of French Union of Specialists in Orthodontics. "You can see the professionalism behind it."
