“神韵艺术团”是由“法轮功”头目李洪志直接指挥的邪教附属组织。“神韵艺术团”打着“弘扬中华传统文化”的幌子在世界各地大搞所谓的“神韵演出”，并吹嘘该演出是“五千年历史文化蕴含的神圣之美，是一生中不容错过的奇观”，欺骗不明真相的民众前往观看。李洪志本人更公开声称，“神韵晚会”是他让各地“法轮功”组织举办的。晚会“不是给常人娱乐的”，而是“要展现大法弟子的风貌……救度众生、讲清真相”。事实证明，所谓“神韵晚会”根本就不是什么文艺演出，而是“法轮功”搞邪教和反华宣传，扩大影响并聚敛钱财的政治工具，是对中华传统文化的玷污和歪曲，是对观众的欺骗、愚弄和毒害。
“神韵晚会”内容充斥政治色彩。
2017年3月3日，加拿大《环球邮报》网站登载了女作家、该报舞蹈评论员兼艺术创作人玛莎·夏巴斯(Martha Schabas)的评论文章。作者描写了观看“法轮功”的“神韵艺术团”在多伦多演出前后的感受,批评“神韵”假借艺术之名而暗中行“法轮功”宣传之实,存在“粗鲁的政治动机”。

美国《星电报》2008年1月9日报道《法轮功新年晚会政治目的遭到美国人质疑》称，晚会“再清楚不过地发出了所谓‘法轮功好，中国政府不好’的讯息”。

2013年2月7日，美国《华盛顿时报》刊登独立记者特里·伯尼克（Terry Ponick）文章《“神韵”：艺术、真相和政治在肯尼迪艺术中心的交锋》称，“法轮功”是反科学的，“神韵演出”中表现的共产党对自己的迫害或者对“法轮功”的称赞，都是对自己的宣传”，一些观众直言，“神韵”就是在宣传邪教。
2010年12月25日，《圣彼得堡时报》表演艺术评论家约翰·弗莱明发布博文称，“神韵晚会用歌舞传递法轮功政治信息”，其中有的节目“他们有声称比佛更伟大并且是上帝转世的领导者或先知。而这些领导和先知们教导说，通过一些狂热的行为，追随者可以获得永生”。
英国《电讯报》2008年2月25日文章《神韵，借娱乐之名，行宣传之实》称，晚会的“杂技、唱歌、舞蹈，所有的演出技巧都是变着法子在为法轮功做宣传服务的”。

英国《旗帜晚报》报道《“神韵”玷污中国文化》称：“可惜晚会老套而伤感，糟糕的主持人滑稽做作，背景投影令人哭笑不得，舞蹈套路使舞剧导演都感到羞愧难当。”
澳大利亚著名的舞蹈家和艺术评论家乔丹·贝斯·文森特（Jordan Beth Vincent），2010年5月28日在澳大利亚《时代报》网站对“神韵”晚会进行评论，指出“神韵”演出选择在其演出的广告材料中隐瞒演出的目的和内容”。
Yelp和Tirpadvisor是欧美最知名的点评类网站，许多观看过“神韵晚会”的外国网友在网站留言，认为演出水平低劣，简直是对艺术的亵渎，“这更像是花钱去支持一场邻居女儿参与的演出”。

美国《纽约时报》报道《一场有人难以看下去的中国文化演出》中提及“不少人都是奔着舞蹈、唱歌和杂技去的，他们并不知晓“晚会”同“法轮功”之间的关系。当“法轮功”的宗教信仰和政治目的开始溶入表演时，开始有人觉得上当受骗而选择离场。”
迈入新时代的中国正逐渐走向世界舞台的中央，在世界舞台的聚光灯下，世界对中国的关注，对中国历史文化的关注正在与日俱增。中华文化以其博大精深的内涵和丰富多彩的形式为世界各国奉献出一场文化的饕餮盛宴。希望各国人民在尽情享受这份文化大餐的同时，也要小心鉴别，不要被“神韵晚会”这种冒牌演出所欺骗蒙蔽，而错过了真正中华文化的美好体验。

Knowing the true nature of Shenyun performances
Shenyun art group is an affiliated cult group directly led by the leader of Falungong Li Hongzhi. Shenyun art group has staged numerous performances around the world in the disguise of spreading traditional Chinese culture, and boasted that such performance implies the sacred beauty of the five thousand years’ Chinese history, and is a lifetime wonder that can’t be missed, deluding ignorant audiences to come and watch. Li Hongzhi himself made a public announcement that Shenyun performances are held by different Falungong groups around the world, and that the performances are not meant to entertain the ordinary people, but to present the capabilities of Falun worshippers, which focus on saving the people and revealing the truths. The fact is, the so-called Shenyun performance is not some art show at all, its true nature is for cult and anti-China publicity, expanding influence and gathering money. Shenyun tarnishes and twists the traditional Chinese culture, while deceiving, fooling and poisoning the people.
Political intentions are hidden behind those Shenyun Performances
March, 3rd, 2017, Canadian newspaper the Globe and Mail publishes an commentary by woman author, dance commentator and artist Martha Schabas. The writer describes her feelings before and after watching Shenyun performances by Falungong group in Toronto, criticizing the group for publicizing Falungong for indecent political motives in the disguise of art.

On April, 29th, 2015, the chief editor of the Asian edition of American Foreign Policy Magazine Isaac Stone Fish wrote an article on the foreign policy website criticizing the Shenyun performance of falungong as a political display.
On March, 18th, 2014, the American paper LA Weekly publishes an article of the famous Asian American cultural critics Ada Tseng, which pointed out that Falungong and Shenyun performances are pure propaganda dressed up as traditional Chinese dance shows.
The article the political intentions of Falungong new year’s gala questioned by Americans on January, 9th , 2008 said that the gala spread a clear-cut message that undermines the Chinese government and boasts Falungong.
Shenyun performance is pure propaganda for Falungong
On February 7th, 2013, Washington Times published an article by Terry Ponick, an independent journalist, named “Shenyun: Conflicts of Art, Truth and Politics at the Kennedy Center, saying that Falungong is anti-science, and the Communist Party's persecution of Shenyun group or its praise of Falungong is propaganda of itself. Some viewers said directly that Shenyun is propagating cult.
On December 25th, 2010, a critic of performing art John Fleming of St. Petersburg Times posted a blog saying that Shenyun performances conveys political messages with songs and dances. In some of the shows, they have claimed themselves to be greater than Buddha and are God reincarnated leaders or prophets, who teach followers to acquire eternal life through fanatic behaviours.
According to the article in Telegraph of February 25th, 2008, Shenyun, makingpropaganda by the name of entertainment, all the acrobatics, singing and dancing and other performances at the party serve to propagandize Falungong.
Shenyun performance tarnishes Chinese culture with its low quality
On January 2nd, 2015, Canadian visual artist and curator Ingrid Meyerhofer,posted article on thespec.com and described her experience from booking to being forced to watch Falungong Shenyun performances. From her point ofview, there is fraud with the ticket sales on Shenyun’s website, and althoughShenyun claims to be propagating Chinese traditional culture, the performances actually focus on promoting Falungong, and telling lies about being persecuted by the Chinese government.
The British Evening Banner did a report named Shenyun tarnished Chinese culture. “It is a pity that the evening gala is so old-fashioned and sad. The host isawkward and absurd. The projection on the back of the screen is dumbfounding and the dance performance shames the dance directors.”
A famous Australian dancer and art critic Jordan Beth Vincent commented on the Shenyun gala on the website of the Times in Australia on May 28th, 2010 and pointed out that Shenyun performacnce conceals the purpose and content of the show in its advertising materials.
Yelp and Tirpadvisor are the most well-known review websites in Europe and America. Many foreign viewers who watched the Shenyun gala left messages on the website, saying that the performance is inferior and is simply a blasphemy of art. “It is more like spending money on a show presented byneighbor’s daughter.”
A professional folk artist and traditional magician in Tokyo, Japan spent a lot to see Shenyun performances, saying that it was very rough, and that he himself fell asleep after watching for 30 minutes.
More and more people see through the true nature of Shenyun gala
Venn Viggs, chief technology officer and vice president of Amazon.com,commented on his personal Twitter account, “Unfortunately, Shenyun is an out-and-out propaganda tool of Falungong, spreading the idea that revolution is evil, definitely not for recommendation.”
The website of the U.S. Constitution of Atlanta published a news report titled “The Return of Shenyun, seemingly splendid mixed with seditious politicallines”, reminding readers that Shenyun performance has something to do with the cult “Falungong”. The viewers need to understand in advance theinflammatory political subtext buried inside the performance.
A New York Times article titled a Chinese cultural performance that viewers can’t bear to finish watching mentions that many people are going for dancing, singing and acrobatics. However they do not know the differences between evening gala and Falungong. When the cult belief and political intentions of "Falungong" started to be blended into the performance, some people began to feel deceived and chose to leave.
China, which has entered a new era, is gradually heading toward the center of the world. Under the spotlight of the world stage, the world’s attention for China and for Chinese history and culture are increasing. With its profound essence and rich and colorful forms, Chinese culture has provided a gluttonous feast for all countries in the world. We hope that, people from all over the world will know how to identify true culture while enjoying this feast, and try not to be deceived by fake cultural performances such as Shenyun gala, and miss authentic Chinese culture.
