Fantastic 5.0
Very good experience to understand the minority races of China. The performances are intriguing. The entire show is 1 hr 40 min. Worth the price

I purchased tickets after reading the performance description. My first impression was that the stage seemed small. The Peacock Dance was good, but I believe the high-pitched voices are a tradition of ethnic minorities, and they left an impression, making everything feel somewhat amateurish. I wondered if what I saw was truly what was described. Perhaps my expectations were a bit too high. Photography seemed to be prohibited during the performance. When I went to pick up the tickets, they were already prepared.
Guide
- Introduction: "Dynamic Yunnan" is a large-scale original ecological song and dance ensemble meticulously created by renowned dancer Yang Liping, hailed as "the re-enlightenment of Chinese ethnic dance." This performance, set against the backdrop of Yunnan's diverse ethnic cultures, showcases the profound tribute of Yunnan's ethnic minorities to nature, life, and faith through a perfect fusion of dance, music, lighting, and stage design. Since its premiere in 2004, it has become a calling card for Yunnan's cultural tourism, attracting countless domestic and international audiences17.
- Unique Yunnan Humanistic Art: Original Ecological Artistic Expression: 70% of the performers are from ethnic minorities across Yunnan, and they use the most unadorned songs and dances to display the most authentic ethnic customs. The costumes and props are all restored from the living prototypes of various ethnic groups in Yunnan, making the audience feel as if they are in a Yunnan village.
- Stunning Stage Effects: The upgraded version of "Dynamic Yunnan" has been comprehensively enhanced in lighting, sound effects, and stage design. Scenes such as real-life mountains and rivers, colorful peacock dances, and mysterious tiger head mask dances present Yunnan's natural scenery and ethnic culture in a visually impactful way.
- Fusion of Classic and Innovation: The performance not only retains traditional ethnic dance elements, such as Huayao song and dance, Haicai tune, and Daguo dance, but also incorporates modern stage technology, creating an artistic experience that is both real and illusory.

Audiences will feel the love for life and reverence for nature of Yunnan’s ethnic minorities in the stunning performance.
- Interactive Segment: In some performances, audiences can participate in the Huayao song and dance, dancing with the performers and experiencing the passion and vitality of Yunnan's ethnic dances.
