I spent $230 on tickets for a Shen yun show because the flier and reviews were outstanding. Immediately upon arrival no warmth from valet ::shrug:: move on to the entrance the staff was the coldest shock to me I became so uncomfortable I became confused ! and then the show comes on and everything makes sense.
To make a short story shorter I had to leave within about 15 minutes. Those dancers are extremely talented and the lifeless smith center with its stage floor that sticks out like a sore thumb absolutely did not help. And if your going to steal my money don't call it classic 5000 years of Chinese history in one show and have a digital background that the dancers started to rely on way too much. Granted its about the majesty of the circular dance but I DID not buy into it. I take nothing away from the performers
Needs way better direction everything else took away the beauty in the moves for me... Too bad. I was really looking foward to a great show
