Mr. Inoentepe was impressed that the New York-based performance company is reviving myths and legends from China's 5,000-year-old history.
"Just by chance I heard about this show. I'm truly glad that I am here today. The show is most pleasant with its animation and combination of backdrop pictures and dance," he said.
The performance had made a deep impression on him. "It is a spectacular performance. I can recommend to anyone to come and see the Shen Yun show. What is so interesting is that the show brings historical stories to life, provides live music and dance on stage."
A performance by Shen Yun is a presentation of traditional Chinese culture as it once was: a study in grace, wisdom, and the virtues distilled from the five millennia of Chinese civilization, virtues that Mr. Inoentepe identified with.
"Ethical behavior has been lost and what one sees today in modern dance and modern art is not what I want to watch.
"What the artists have brought to us today is perfect. It is pure and it is the same joy as when one sees the first day of spring. It is just as the spring we have seen on stage, with the blooming trees on the backdrop, the bubbling brooks and seas. It is what humans should be exposed to.
"I congratulate the creator of this show," he said.
Mr. Inoentepe said he would recommend Shen Yun to others. “One has to support this show. This production must continue. I understand how much work has been put into this production."
