Assistant to MP: The Chinese Spectacular was a surprising delight

Pascal Favre, an assistant of MP Yves Bur, said after watching the show, "The show is interesting and graceful. It was colorful and energetic. For me it was a surprising delight. We can feel the meaning behind the show. Chinese history and legends are very meaningful."

"What I liked most was 'Victory Drums.' The drum sound and choreography are very entertaining," said Mr. Favre, "The information from the show has rich spiritual connotation expressed through art. We can feel that they were not just dancing, but expressing deep meaning."

Mr. Favre said, "The show emphasized the root of Chinese culture. It is interesting that museums spread traditional Chinese culture, but now this show presents it with art and integration with modern life."

Finally, he said, "The Divine Performing Arts tours around the globe, which is a great thing. It allows those who do not have the chance to travel to other parts of the world to learn about Chinese culture directly from the stage performance."
