Feedback from China: Divine Performing Arts Portrays the Demeanour of Traditional Chinese People

The Divine Performing Arts (DPA) 2009 World Tour show has been made into CDs in China so that the Chinese people can have an opportunity to see the show. Below are several feedbacks from people in China.

Mr. Zhao of Wuhan is a retired teacher and once served as party secretary of his school. After watching the DPA show, he had much to say:

"The Chinese New Year Gala presented by Chinese Central Television (CCTV) mobilised resources of the entire country and yet their show was far inferior to the DPA show. Look at the colours of the DPA show, they were truly beautiful. "The Monkey King Triumphs" was very interesting, the colours of "The Mystical Phoenix" were truly beautiful, and the list goes on and on. Every piece was so good. The singers were the best, and the orchestra, conducted by Ms. Ying Chen, was admirable. The show was so peaceful and portrayed the demeanour of traditional Chinese people, who are very righteous. But look at people in Mainland China. Under the rule of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), we compete with each other and try to take advantage of others whenever possible. I just can't figure out why. The country is hopeless, and the only thing I can do is educate my grandson and send him overseas when he grows up."

In the Jining region of Shandong Province, six year-old Tongtong was excited after seeing the show, "It is great. Nothing is comparable to this show." Sixteen-year-old Yanyan said that he would give every classmate a DPA CD as a New Year gift.

Mr. Kuang is a high school teacher in Qingdao, and he commented that the show was very peaceful, and he loved it. "I told my wife, I need to watch this show more, as I need peace."

Ms. Diao, also a school teacher, said that the show was very beautiful, "It's something that can't be presented by ordinary people!"

Ms. Sun is an elementary school teacher. While watching the show, she exclaimed, "The backdrop is so beautiful. Average people can't give a performance of this kind. They must be very talented. The show is phenomenal."
