Monkey: Journey to the West<\/p><\/div>\n

Asian audiences, particularly the Chinese, seem to have developed a taste for western performing arts.<\/p>\n

A case in point is Monkey: Journey to the West, a vibrant and visually sumptuous production featured at the Lincoln Center Festival.<\/p>\n

Other examples of how the performing arts has attracted Asian audiences is the Chinese New Year gala concert of cellist Jian Wang, and productions by the Shen Yun Performing Arts<\/a>, a Chinese dance company based in New York.<\/p>\n

Meantime, the `Monkey\u2019 director has revived the Noh play Matsukaze, which is about a couple of ghost sisters.<\/p>\n

The question is, are Asian audiences ready for more serious stuff or truly great cultural performances?<\/p>\n
