Take an enlightening journey through 5,000 years!

SHEN YUN’S unique artistic vision expands theatrical experience into a multi-dimensional, inspiring journey through one of humanity’s greatest treasures—the five millennia of traditional Chinese culture.

This epic production immerses you in stories reaching back to the most distant past. You’ll explore realms even beyond our visible world. Featuring one of the world’s oldest art forms— classical Chinese dance—along with patented scenographical effects and all-original orchestral works, Shen Yun opens a portal to a civilization of enchanting beauty and enlightening wisdom.

Traditional Chinese culture—with its profoundly optimistic worldview and deep spiritual roots— was displaced by communism in China. Today, only the New York-based Shen Yun is keeping this precious heritage alive on stage. And it’s an experience that will take your breath away.

This hard-hitting Broadway smash will keep you on the edge of your seat! Friends since kindergarten, Chicago cops Joey and Denny are like brothers. Intensely loyal, they want to do right by the force, their family and each other. Joey is a loner with a bit of a drinking problem. Denny is a family man passed over for promotion one time too many. Their relationship is put on the line after responding to a domestic disturbance that takes a turn for the worse. Each man’s harrowing version of the truth becomes a fight for their own survival. Where the moral grey area exists, A Steady Rain begins.

6. THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK

February 21-March 31, 2018
People's Light
Address: 39 Conestoga Rd, Malvern, PA 19355
Phone: (610) 644-3500

Amsterdam, 1942. In a cramped, secret annex, eight Jews attempt to evade Nazi deportation. One of them, a teenage girl with a vibrant spirit and a gift for writing, chronicles their harrowing experiences in her diary. Wendy Kesselman's adaptation captures the immediacy of Anne Frank's voice and the courage and terror of life in hiding from Hitler's genocide of the Jews. Our production, featuring a multi-racial cast, honors this "undeniably moving" (The New York Times) story as it speaks to today's increasingly nationalistic world.

Approximate run time is 2 hours and 10 minutes including a 15-minute intermission. Best enjoyed by ages 12+

Once the queen learns that Snow White is still alive, she concocts a poisonous apple which the innocent Snow White eats. The poison puts her to sleep and the dwarfs are left feeling hopeless. Little does the queen know, evil magic has its limits!
