I asked the same question before. My friend has seen Shen Yun one time through recommendation by a friend who saw that the show is cultural. Partway through the show, the mood completely changed. My friend was so offended by what she described as ‘blatant propaganda’ that she walked out of the show. You can read a lot about Shen Yun on Wikipedia. Just make sure you gather your information from non-bias sources. Essentially, Shen Yun is a propaganda tool for Falun Gong to recruit more members. The founder had changed his birthday to match Buddha’s and claimed that he is God. Nobody knows much about him. While I am all for freedom of religion, this one has characteristics resembling more of a cult because it wants followers to slowly withdraw from society. Think Heaven Gate found by Marshall Applewhite. If you choose to watch it, be aware that the show is trying to convert you. I skipped despite the tease of visually appealing costumes.
