NEWARK, N.J.—”There are no words to describe the elegance of that performance,” said Wade Kirby, a non-profit fundraiser. Kirby, his wife Linda, and their son attended the April 24 matinee of Shen Yun at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center.
Shen Yun is a New York-based classical Chinese dance and music performance that presents 5,000 years of Chinese culture preserved from destruction under communist China. For this reason, Shen Yun cannot be performed in China today.
