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.
