(Clearwisdom.net) Despite the inclement weather in Taipei, the Divine Performing Arts' (DPA) shows still played to capacity crowds.
On March 2, the DPA International Company held its last show in Taipei, and the theater was full. According to the organizer, many people who were not able to get tickets for the weekend performance tried to buy a ticket on Monday. In just a few hours, 400 tickets were sold. All tickets were sold out 6 hours before the show on Monday, yet many people were still hoping to get in. Some people said the same situation arose last year, so they booked tickets way before the show this year.
People are asking for ticket information.
One group in the audience was from Hong Kong and Mainland China. They'd heard about the show before, and formed a tourist group, coming to the show in Taiwan. Ms. Li, a member of the group, said: "I felt so good both physically and mentally after the show. I was touched by the program which dealt with the persecution of Falun Gong." Mr. Jiang He from China watched the show twice in a row. He said: "I understood that Falun Gong is good after watching the show. It seems that heavenly beings have come to save us. I hope someday this show can be held in China."

Famous vocalist, Prof. Lu Lili, the Lady Butterfly of Taiwan, had attended the show before, but on Monday, she came again, bringing 40 colleagues from the arts community. She said: "The actors are professional. You can tell that they are serious from their movements and even their smiles. The stage design of the show gives the audience space for imagination."
Dr. Lian Wenbin, a famous doctor and professor at Taiwan University, said: "All the program were world class. The costumes are pretty. I like Chinese poems, so the program "A Poet's Vision," made a very deep impression on me."
