(Clearwisdom.net) On January 10 and 11, 2008, the Divine Performing Arts held two shows at the Boston Opera House. Audience members were touched by the outstanding performance.

Harvard University Professor: "Each performance was noble and fascinating."

Professor Carol Weiss at Harvard University and one of her students attended the first show together. Professor Weiss remarked that each performance was noble and fascinating.

The student said, "The dancers were so graceful. The vocal performances were excellent. Each program had a story behind it. My favorite was the Mongolian Bowl Dance, which required special skill and balance."

College student Jasmin and her mother attended the show together

A young woman said to the reporter in fluent Chinese, "I never imagined getting to see a traditional Chinese performance in the US. I am very happy." Jasmin was born in Boston and now studies Chinese language at Hamilton College in New York. She said that she has been drawn to Chinese culture since she was very young. After hearing of the Chinese New Year Spectacular, she excitedly brought her mother with her to see it.

Jasmin studied Chinese for half a year in Beijing. She said she had never seen such a wonderful Chinese performance before. She enjoyed all the programs, especially the 'Drummers of the Tang Court.'

Jasmin's mother said that she was glad she came to see the show. She said that she knew about the persecution of Falun Gong in China, which was depicted in some of the performances, since Jasmin had told her about it before. She said all people in the world should have freedom of belief.
