SANTIAGO, Chile—Shen Yun Performing Arts staged another breath-taking experience for an enthusiastic Santiago audience on Friday night, July 10. This year the New York-based performing arts company is holding three shows in Chile’s largest city as part of its 2009 World Tour.
Ms. Lietriga, a graphic designer who also designs costumes and jewelry, and Mr. Sepulveda, who works in IT, were among the audience and were amazed with what they saw.
“Very beautiful—the dress, the movements, the hands,” Ms. Lietriga said.
And as a designer, the qualities that she values the most got top marks. “Absolutely, the colors, the textures, everything.”
Chinese classical dance, the centerpiece of the Shen Yun shows, is among the most comprehensive dance systems in the world. It is known for its expressiveness and for its training of strength and flexibility.
Ms. Lietriga thoroughly enjoyed it saying, “Amazing, the discipline, the choreography.”
Mr. Sepulveda especially liked the drums saying, “I found the medium of expression very powerful, from everyone of them and from the group. What I see in all of the numbers, is a very good coordination, and a very in-tune group, a strong discipline is very noticeable. Very professional.”
He also found a message of hope and “even more so a message reminiscent of something that is being lost.”
Ms. Lietriga added, “I was very impressed about how they are preserving their culture, what they are preserving is marvelous, and what they are doing is an example for everyone.
“All of the girl’s movements are very feminine, it is very wonderful. It is a gift for us.”
She said the show absolutely exceeded her expectations, “that and much more.”
Mr. Sepulveda just wanted to thank Shen Yun very much.
Shen Yun is performing in Santiago, Chile, with three shows from July 10 to 12. The show will then return to Argentina on July 16, this time in Cordoba, performing three more shows until July 18.
