We are artists, students, friends, family, and theatre patrons who all share one thing in common -- our lives have been touched by Shen Yun Performing Arts, the world's premier classical Chinese dance company. Over the past 17 years, Shen Yun's popularity has skyrocketed, becoming a household name in many parts of the world. Yet few understand how this unique American company operates nor what it is like to participate in its performances. As a community, we have come together to offer our personal experiences and insights on what life is like working with Shen Yun Performing Arts.
