(Clearwisdom.net) AUGUSTA--United States Senator Johnny
Isakson sent his "warmest personal regards" to Shen Yun Performing
Arts. "This is an event that has delighted thousands with its
wonderful Chinese dance and music while highlighting the
interesting and inspiring cultural myths, legends and majestic
beauty of the traditional Chinese culture," he wrote.
The company started its 2010 world tour in the second oldest and
second largest city in Georgia.
Augusta Mayor Deke Cophenhaver thanked the local organizers for
"bringing this magical event to our city. The City of Augusta is
honored to have been included in such a world-wide spectacle of
Chinese culture."
He praised the show for "celebrating the pure excellence and
grandeur of classical Chinese dance and music."
Ballet Dancer Calls Show 'Gorgeous'
Former Atlanta Ballet dancer Mr. Ta drove 2 1/2 hours from Atlanta to see the show. He said "Gorgeous. Beautiful... It was a glorious show. " The tall, elegant man was among the first to rise for the standing ovation the show garnered.
He has been in the United States for ten years, but he grew up
in Inner Mongolia. He said he was "interested in all of it. The
Mongolian dance was amazing. You can't say anything about it; it
just made me feel so good."
Mr. Ta is also a friend of one of the Shen Yun performers, Yungchia
Chen. The two were classmates at the Beijing Dance Academy.
Yungchia Chen "is kind of a famous guy. So nice and such a good
dancer," Mr. Ta said.
"I just loved it. My friend--I was so ecstatic to see him dancing
on stage."
Mr. Ta said he hopes to see the show again when it comes to Atlanta
in mid-January.
"It is an amazing performance. I liked it so much."
