Remember to bring noise cancelling headphones, sunglasses and a good book. It's too loud, too bright and too boring. However, I applaud the work by the kung fu students as they evidently tried their best. It is the producers fault for using random YouTube music in low quality

The storyline was classical. The execution was great. Loved all forms of traditional Chinese martial arts, especially the ones with nunchucks. Perfect for all types of spectators. Family friendly.
Well done

I took my husband to see Soul of Shaolin yesterday evening, and we certainly weren’t disappointed. The performers were fantastic, and the story was beautiful. My husband was so inspired he’s now looking at Kung-fu classes.

We really enjoyed the dramatics but like usual of costs, I think the tickets of any show as always overpriced leaving for seats not being filled. It will be advised lower the costs more so that the performers can bounce off the energies of a full house, not that they didn’t but it just seems sad that more people cannot access these or more shows because of costs and this is such a shame. We have to face costs of travelling, parking etc as well and when you think of it this makes for travelling especially over 1 hour very tedious and most often people don’t want to bother.

This was my first time seeing a Shaolin Kung Fu display in real life. The split-second choreography and stunning talent on display has to be seen to be believed!

Absolutely impressed at all levels. Took my wife and children aged eight and 10 and I don’t think they blinked for the entire performance. I don’t think I did either, or my wife for that matter!
