In 2006, preeminent classical Chinese artist came together in New York with the goal of reviving the glorious, divinely inspired culture of China and sharing it with the world. Through music and dance, Shen Yun weaves a wondrous tapestry of heavenly realms, ancient legends, and modern heroic tales that take you on a journey through 5,000 years of Chinese culture. Shen Yun pushes the boundaries of the performing arts with a unique blend of classical Chinese dance, ethnic and folk dance, colorful costuming, dazzling animated high-tech backdrops, and live orchestral accompaniment. The show’s stunning beauty and tremendous energy will leave you uplifted and inspired. The traditional Chinese culture Shen Yun presents cannot be seen anywhere else in the world – not even in China. The ruling Chinese communist regime has viewed China’s rich spiritual and artistic heritage as a threat to its ideology, and for decades sought to erase it. Chinese artists have suffered untold ordeals over the past century. Note: Shen Yun is recommended for ages five and older. Children under the age of five will not be permitted in the theatre. Before the show enjoy a delicious lunch on your own at The KC Café located on the Kennedy Center’s roof-level. The café offers a wide variety of menu choices ranging from hot and cold sandwiches, a salad bar, hot entrees including burgers and steaks, fruit cups, sweets, coffee, and wine and more. Enjoy spectacular skyline views of Washington from this cafeteria-style restaurant.
