Shen Yun Show in Arizona|Phoenix Orpheum Theatre|Mesa Arts Center|Ikeda Theater

Shen Yun performance’s garden backdrop has richly ornamented buildings, exquisite flowers, and rare tree. It is perfectly positioned in deeply-layered fashion and their placement containing profound meaning.

Shen Yun moves through mountains, crags, valleys, fertile basin lands, down to the subtropical evergreen forests of Southeast Asia. Digital backdrops bring scenes from 5,000 years of history to the modern stage. State-of-the-art technology is used to depict the natural world as well as ancient Chinese art, including classical Chinese gardens and the heavenly scenes often portrayed in Buddhist paintings.

Ancient Chinese gardens are often displayed in the backdrop of some of Shen Yun’s dances. Those gardens have held profound meaning for Chinese people.

The Taoist inspired its followers to be profoundly conscious of the process of change in nature and the face of nature is clearly expressed in the design of landscapes and in the taoist buildings.

The Taoist principle of yin and yang also manifests in the balance of the garden’s elements of its buildings. In the Chinese gardens, Water and stone, shadow and light, inside and outside are balanced to manifest the Dao, or Way of Nature.

The quest for a memory that has been lost for eternity. The search for a higher calling that has been hidden from mankind. Or simply a reflection of one’s true self. These are some of the very profound words that audiences have used after they saw this AZ performing arts. It is Shen Yun Performing Arts and it is coming to Ikeda Theater at Mesa Arts Center from Feb. 28 to Mar.3 and Orpheum Theatre on Mar.10

A glimpse of life or better life beyond our earthly world that is displayed through wonderfuldance and music has been the talk by many people. Gordon Quan, lawyer and mayor pro tem of the city of Houston, who attended the performance at Houston on Dec. 22, 2011, said what he saw were “celestial bodies which you normally wouldn’t see in a dance performance.” He went on further to elaborate that “I think they always focus on the moral right and a higher calling, looking to not just this life but the next life too.”

Greg Van, a world-renown conductor who attended the performance at San Francisco the past week, had always been perplexed by some of the most difficult questions about the meaning of life. He was very pleased with the idea of how paying “homage to a higher calling, a memory of where we all have come from, and why we are here, it is very good, it is very good practice to remind people, even though they might not remember, it is a very good practice to expose them to these ideas. So if they should search more, they can find the truth it speaks of in the memory.”

When dreams come to life in a visual and musical extravaganza and ancient stories are told in a modern setting, people of different culture, races or ages can deeply appreciate what Shen Yun has to offer. Tickets to this unique experience can be purchased online atwww.azshows.com
