SHEN YUN PERFORMING ARTS REVIEWS

Shen Yun’s 2025 All-New Production Coming to France

Dec 29, 2024

France, the cultural center of Europe, is once again welcoming Shen Yun Performing Arts to the stage with its 2025 all-new production. Shen Yun’s tour of French cities begins in Aix-En-Provence from Jan. 2 through Jan. 7 at the Grand Theatre de Provence, and will visit 11 more cities throughout the winter and spring.

The New York-based performing arts company has become popular the world over since its inception in 2006, and has especially delighted theatergoers in France. Shen Yun is the world’s premier classical Chinese dance and music company, known for reviving the 5,000-year-old art form.

Last year’s audience in Aix-En-Provence loved the beauty and charm of the heavenly scenes and melodies. Sylvain Clément, the account director at Trivium Packaging, said, “It is full of grace, colorful scenes, music that mixes Western and Chinese aspects. And there is grace, grace, and grace.”

Shen Yun’s spiritual message is not lost on French audiences. Shen Yun draws inspiration from China’s 5,000 years of culture and virtues, which ancient Chinese people believed to be inspired by the divine.

Coming from a country with its own high culture, Yannick Barraud said, “We really enjoyed it. It moves us deeply because we get this smile, this cheerfulness, and this story behind it all.”

“It’s wonderful that they’ve kept this spirituality. And these legends, these tales and legends. It’s wonderful to have all of these preserved,” said Christian Drevin.

Audiences in other cities heaped more praise on Shen Yun’s important message of hope.

Marina Collomb from Lyon said, “In our current times where many things are dark and gray, [Shen Yun] is something that raises the energy in oneself and allows you to dream—it was magnificent. I’m very happy to have discovered this show.”

Stéphane Buffetaut, deputy mayor of Apremont, was also moved by the message and the human values conveyed by Shen Yun when he attended a performance in Nantes.

“Civilizations are ancient and they were founded on deep human values,” he said.

“There is a message that moves me because it is an anti-communist message,” he continued, explaining that Shen Yun shows that not everything is material or materialistic.

“In China, the [regime’s] doctrine is historical materialism. And [Shen Yun] shows that, on the contrary, there is something else than this materialism,” he said.
