The first time I saw this performance by some talented mute and deaf dancers from China was when Swee Lim forwarded a video clip to me through hotmail. Since then, I had caught a whole presentation in a DVD, complete with commentary. The troupe I understand was the vision of one great man who was inspired by Guan Yin, the Bodhisattva. If you are still wondering how the dancers can dance to the music when they are deaf, well, there are four other normal able-bodied teachers at the side of the stage, giving them visual instructions.

I say, this performance is perfect. The dancers are always perfect in China. I have seen different times circus artists and dancers from China and they were incredible.
