| WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to | ||
| recognize the Shen Yun Performing Arts group on the occasion of | ||
| its visit to San Antonio April 14 through April 16, 2013; and | ||
| WHEREAS, The Shen Yun troupe was formed in New York in 2006 | ||
| by a group of overseas Chinese artists; its mission is to revive | ||
| and share the essence of 5,000 years of Chinese civilization | ||
| through the performing arts; and | ||
| WHEREAS, At the core of Shen Yun performances is classical | ||
| Chinese dance, an ancient and distinctive art form; in addition, | ||
| the group incorporates folk and ethnic dances, visual | ||
| storytelling, and breathtaking acrobatics; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Shen Yun has achieved phenomenal success in only a | ||
| few years; since its founding, the group has evolved from a | ||
| single dance troupe into a complex production company with three | ||
| simultaneously touring dance troupes, each with its own full | ||
| orchestra; and | ||
| WHEREAS, This highly regarded organization employs some | ||
| 300 artists; it captivates its audiences with the magic of | ||
| movement and colorful handcrafted costumes, sharing the history | ||
| and culture of ancient China; now, therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 83rd | ||
| Legislature, hereby welcome the Shen Yun Performing Arts troupe | ||
| to San Antonio and extend to its members best wishes for | ||
| continued success; and, be it further | ||
| RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
| Shen Yun Performing Arts as an expression of high regard from the | ||
| Texas Senate. | ||
