Shen Yun Show in Hippodrome Theatre

The traditional Chinese culture Shen Yun presents cannot be seen anywhere else in the world—not even in China. There, the ruling communist regime has viewed China’s rich spiritual and artistic heritage as a threat to its ideology and for decades tried to erase it.

But in 2006, a group of Chinese artists came together in New York with a vision: to revive the best of China’s cultural heritage and share it with the world. They drew courage and inspiration from their practice of Falun Dafa—a spiritual discipline based on the principles of truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance. The company’s repertoire includes important works shedding light on the plight of people like them in communist China today.

After a decade of performing around the world to sold-out audiences everywhere, Shen Yun has brought a great civilization back from the brink of extinction. 

Baltimore’s Hippodrome is only hosting four shows (Fri, Jan. 7, 7:30 p.m.; Sat, Jan. 8, 2pm & 7:30pm; Sun, Jan. 9, 2 p.m.). Secure your tickets directly from the presenter, www.shenyun.com/Baltimore.
