Grandpa Jose said his favorite was the dance "Water Sleeves," which brought to life the waves and ripples using fans and long pieces of silk.
Melissa's mother Esmeralda said her favorite was the "Drummers of the Tang Court." She was very touched by the program about the persecution of Falun Gong. She said, "I have heard about the persecution, but the performance made me feel their suffering. It made me realize how valuable human rights and the freedom of belief are. Because there isn't any over there. I am very sad for their suffering. I thank you very much for presenting all this to us."

Melissa said, "It is very sad when some people are suffering, and others don't know about it. It is also a pity when you tell others about it (the persecution of Falun Gong), and they don't get it or don't want to hear it."
Melissa
Esmeralda said, "I liked the idea of good being rewarded and evil being punished, and people standing up against unfairness." Melissa added, "As the host said, 'It is easy to break one chopstick, but a bunch of chopsticks are unbreakable.' I have learned a lot from this show."
