An Inside Look at Shen Yun–And How It’s Defying the CCP’s Global Campaign to Cancel It

“Virtually every theater that we go to all around the world since Shen Yun’s inception has either gotten a phone call or a letter from the Chinese embassy or the Chinese consulate putting pressure on them to not have us perform,” says Shen Yun Master of Ceremonies, Jared Madsen.

From blackmailing theaters and governments to slashing company bus tires, the Chinese communist regime has gone to extreme ends to subvert Shen Yun, a New York-based performing arts company.

As Shen Yun launches its 2024 world tour, I caught up with Mr. Madsen and Shen Yun conductor Ying Chen to learn a little more about their story, their mission, and how they’re defying the Chinese communist regime’s global censorship campaign.

「自神韻成立以來，我們在世界各地的每個劇院幾乎都收到了中國大使館、中國領事館的電話或信函，向劇院施加壓力，要求他們不讓我們演出。」神韻司儀唐瑞表示。

從不惜勒索劇院和政府，甚至惡意毀壞藝術團的巴士輪胎，中共政權為顛覆這家總部位於紐約的表演團體不惜採取極端手段。

在神韻啟動2024年世界巡迴演出之際，我有機會採訪了唐瑞先生和神韻指揮陳穎陳纓女士，了解一下他們的故事、他們的使命、以及他們如何抵抗中共的全球干預活動。
