Shen Yun Artists ‘Completely Infused With This Divine Art,’ Says French Patron

Apr 23, 2023

MONTPELLIER, France—On April 17, Romain Rouvière, a computer engineer, attended Shen Yun Performing Arts at the Corum in Montpellier.

“The level of mastery is incredible! These dances, technical movements! It’s really very, very beautiful! It is surprising. We expected a high level, but to see it in real life with the music and the backdrops and the costumes ... It’s really very, very beautiful!”

“There is a very nice spirit with beautiful messages,” said the engineer enthusiastically. “There are messages of kindness, messages of tolerance. There are scenes against the oppression in China. It carries very healthy and positive messages.”

New York-based Shen Yun was formed in 2006. The name “Shen Yun” means “the beauty of divine beings dancing,” paying homage to the ancient belief of a culture inherited from the divine.

“We really felt the relationship between humans and the divine—a connection where the divine comes to help humans to fight or to help the weakest.”

Géraldine Couray, a company manager, was enthusiastic about Shen Yun.

“It’s beautiful. The colors are superb, the costumes are sublime and the sets are really great! It’s a real treat to make such a discovery, of a type of show that we are not used to seeing in France!”

“The performance is superb! It is really very, very beautiful. There is a lot of work and such mastery which is absolutely remarkable!”

“Personally, I have faith. I find that belief and religion, whatever they are, are extremely important, as long as there is a lot of love, sharing, happiness, and joy. To be together and to make sure everyone is well and happy!”

“It allows us to see China in a way unknown to us. The company conveys a very beautiful image of China and its traditions of dance, music ... It’s really a very beautiful show not to be missed!”

Mr. Wach was moved by the link to the divine expressed in Shen Yun’s storytelling.

“It’s very important to maintain that compassion and faith. In fact, it allows us to be united, to be in tune. It’s like the music, like the performances, we’re all one. It’s so important!”

Mr. Wach emphasized we can also feel this link to the divine from the Shen Yun’s artists. “You can feel they are completely infused with this divine art. It is a staple. Yes, it’s Shen Yun!”
