Shen Yun Performing Arts offers an exhilarating world-class production that celebrates the excellence and grandeur of classical Chinese dance and music. It draws inspiration from the legends, values, and spirit that defined traditional Chinese culture for centuries.

In 2009 Shen Yun delighted nearly one million live audience members in more than 100 cities across 20 countries worldwide. In 2010 its annual tour comes to Worcester for the first time ever.

Weaving a wondrous story of heavenly realms, enchanting dreams, and the classic struggle between good and evil, the shows breathtaking pageantry evokes themes of virtue, compassion, and courage which have lain at the heart of Chinas culture since antiquity. Story-based dances portray topics ranging from ancient tales of valor to modern-day epics such as that of Falun Dafa. Following the tragic erosion of traditional Chinese culture under decades of communist rule, New York-based Shen Yun Performing Arts endeavors to rediscover a lost artistic and cultural heritage.

You will be spellbound by the brilliant choreography, stunning costumes, and state-of-the-art dynamic backdrops. Heres your chance to savor an uplifting, enriching experience that has charmed and delighted people of all ages, Western and Asian alike.
