    Shen Yun Review: Mark Irvine, BBC presenter & antique dealer

    “Absolutely beautiful. Elegance personified, costumes are fabulous, the dance is incredible. On this, which is Valentine’s night, it is such a beautiful occasion… I’ve been very fortunate to travel to China on several occasions on business, so I’ve seen the modern China, but to see historical China, to see the stories, the history, the beauty, is just wonderful… I’m totally in love with the movement, I’m totally in love with the color, the flair—it’s just exquisite, exquisite… [To the artists:] Thank you! The explosion of color, of culture, of love, of passion is an experience. And if anybody watches this [review] that has never seen Shen Yun, please go, please please book, and go, because it is just beautiful, absolutely beautiful!”
