A romantic and poetic Kungfu show -- "Kungfu Revelations: Nine Scrolls" has hit Zhengzhou in central China's Henan province, attracting a packed house at the Henan Art Center. The show is a vivid portrayal of the philosophies of Chinese culture in the form of martial arts.

The Yin meets the Yang, as esoteric Chinese philosophy is embodied in martial arts.

"Kungfu Revelations: Nine Scrolls" uses a poetic and dramatic form of Kungfu to interpret and portray the very soul of Chinese culture, art, and philosophy. The combination creates a new language of movement, unlocking ancient wisdom for a modern audience.

"Kungfu is transformed into poetry by the infusion of Chinese philosophy. I believe this takes the show far beyond a mere Kungfu stunt," said Yu Yang, producer of "Kungfu Revelations: Nine Scrolls".

The show is divided into 9 parts and each has a theme that audience can relate to. It strikes to the very core of man's spiritual struggle, that we are all on a journey to completeness, peace and purity.

"This show is not just about Kungfu. It guides you into the depths of our culture. I love this artistic portrayal," said an audience.
