Shen Yun Performing Arts Returns to the Broward Center’s Au Rene Theatre
A fter its run of sold-out shows in 2012, Shen Yun
Performing Arts returns to the Broward Center’s Au
Rene Theater with an unparalleled blend of ener-
gy, grace, and originality on January 11-13, 2013.
A performance by Shen Yun is a presentation of traditional
Chinese culture as it once was: a study in grace, wisdom,
and the virtues distilled from five millennia of the world’s most
ancient civilization.
At the core of Shen Yun’s performances is classical Chinese
dance with its explosive techniques, synchronized move-
ments, and expressive powers. Dozens of dancers in dazzling costumes, thunderous drums, and spectacular backdrops
take you to another world.
Shen Yun captures the spirit of ancient China, recalling the grandeur of a culture long
lost. Gorgeous backdrops extend the stage, transporting the audience to distant lands
and eras. Award-winning vocalists perform soaring arias to piano accompaniment.
For tickets and information, please call 1-888-974-3968
