He was impressed with the performers’ athleticism: “I haven’t seen anything like it. They’ve got to be the best in the world, to be honest. They’re right on in sync. I don’t think I’ve seen anybody who hasn’t been perfectly in tune with one another.”
An important takeaway for Mr. Horas was the extent of Chinese culture and history. He learned of “the depth of the Chinese culture and just how much history and respect for nature that there is. I never really completely understood it, but I think I’m getting a little bit of a better picture of it.”
Mr. Horas would say this to friends about Shen Yun: “I encourage you to go see it. Amazing.”

James Matthews, a computer architect of cloud technology, said Shen Yun “is fantastic. I love all the colors, and the costumes. It’s fantastic.” Mr. Matthews said his job “is to work out what companies want to achieve, and then design technology to get them there.”More than a beautiful show, Shen Yun shares positive messages and stories in its program. “I think they’re pretty clearly explained, so I like the idea of them going back and showing some of the history from China.”
Mr. Matthews said he appreciated many aspects of the production. “It’s great. I love the way they use the live performances with the video screen. That’s great.”
An important spiritual message came through to him as he learned something from another culture. “It’s there. It’s difficult to understand if you don’t come from that culture. It’s kind of an introduction.”
“It’s different. I don’t think there’s anything quite like this,” he said.
