SHEN YUN IN VANCOUVER

Shen Yun — Reviving 5,000 Years of Civilization: Shen Yun Performing Arts is a premier classical Chinese dance and music company established in New York in 2006. It performs classical Chinese dance, ethnic and folk dance, and story-based dance, and orchestral accompaniment. For 5,000 years, divine culture flourished in the land of China. Humanity’s treasure was nearly lost in the 20th century, but through breathtaking music and dance, Shen Yun is reviving this glorious culture. Shen Yun can be translated as “the beauty of divine beings dancing.” The 40 dancers perform wearing intricate costumes, often accompanied by a variety of props. Some costumes are intended to imitate the dress of various ethnicities, while others depict ancient Chinese court dancers, soldiers, or characters from classic stories. Props include colourful handkerchiefs, drums, fans, chopsticks, or silk scarves. Each Shen Yun piece is set against a digitally projected backdrop, usually depicting landscapes such as Mongolian grasslands, imperial courts, ancient villages, temples, or mountains. Shen Yun has eight performance troupes, each a large performing ensemble. These eight companies tour the world, performing in over 130 cities across multiple continents. Vancouver is one of three Canadian cities (the others are in Ontario) hosting Shen Yun. We have excellent seats at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Centre Orchestra, Rows 17 to 19. Seats are assigned according to the order that you book for this tour. Don’t miss this incredible performance!

Show cancellation: It rarely happens, but performers occasionally get sick, or some mishap causes the cancellation of a show. This can occur even shortly before the performance begins. We know that this would be disappointing for our customers, but the only refund we would be able to obtain for you would be the actual ticket price of the show. The hotel, motorcoach, and other tour services are all prepaid and are nonrefundable at short notice.

Itinerary and Fare Changes: ur m any s uppliers may notify us about changes to the itinerary prior to departure and sometimes during the tour. We do our best to substitute a similar service if something cancels, but occasionally the only alternative is to provide a refund for the missed activity. Please note that if we are forced to cancel a tour component due to an issue beyond our control, the current penalties still apply if you choose to cancel the entire tour. Fuel surcharges and changes to taxes or other tour costs can occur at any time, therefore Wells Gray Tours reserves the right to increase fares due to such changes up to departure.
