This past April 18, Costa Mesa, California, was the vibrant host for an unforgettable evening filled with art, culture, and history as Shen Yun Performing Arts took the stage at the renowned Segerstrom Center for the Arts. Among the audience was Marco Mijares, a company manager who was all smiles after enjoying his very first performance of Shen Yun. Having heard rave reviews about the show for years, he finally saw for himself what all the fuss was about.
For Mijares, attending Shen Yun was something he had been looking forward to, and it certainly didn’t disappoint. The performance, which aims to bring to life the rich tapestry of 5,000 years of Chinese culture—much of which has been lost under the cloud of communist rule—was a powerful showcase of traditional values and artistry. Mijares expressed his absolute delight with the show, emphasizing that he found it to be spectacular. He even went as far as to say that he would recommend it to anyone looking for a stirring experience.
One of the highlights for Mijares was the artists’ dedication to reviving traditional Chinese culture. After witnessing the passion and artistry displayed on stage, he felt compelled to support the mission of Shen Yun. It’s a cause that resonates deeply with him, especially in light of the historical attempts during the Chinese Cultural Revolution to erase traditional practices and beliefs. Mijares introduced his thoughts on those actions, considering them both foolish and nonsensical, and stressed the importance of preserving and honoring cultural heritage.
Interestingly, the performance coincided with Good Friday, a fact that added another layer of meaning to Mijares’ experience. As someone who identifies with the Catholic faith, he reflected on the significance of the day while immersing himself in the cultural expressions of another tradition. His sentiments mirrored a sense of unity through art, making the experience even more special.
Mijares didn’t hold back in sharing his thoughts about the event, remarking on how absolutely phenomenal it was. The talent and energy radiating from the stage left a lasting impression. He encourages the performers to continue their important work, acknowledging the effort that goes into producing each show. After such a breathtaking evening, it’s no wonder he has made a commitment to spread the word about Shen Yun, hoping to inspire others to check out this extraordinary presentation of culture.
This year marks the 19th anniversary of Shen Yun, which has grown to feature eight touring companies, dazzling audiences in over 200 cities globally. With a unique program released each year, Shen Yun continues to captivate hearts and minds with its stunning displays of dance, music, and storytelling. The commitment to share the beauty of Chinese culture serves not just as entertainment but as an educational experience that carries deep significance.
For Marco Mijares, this first dive into the world of Shen Yun was only the beginning. He hopes to return annually, reflecting a strong desire to witness the evolution of this incredible art form. With enthusiastic supporters like Mijares lighting the way for others to follow, it’s clear that the mission of Shen Yun to bring culture and tradition back to life is one that resonates far and wide. So, Costa Mesa, if you missed this magical evening, be on the lookout for your chance to experience something truly exceptional next time around!
