LOS ANGELES─The Chinese New Year Spectacular continued for the second day at the Nokia Live L.A. Theatre in Los Angeles.

Shanda Lam, a homemaker was one of the enthralled spectators. She co-owns a business called "Monkey King" that sells art toys and collectables in Chinatown in Los Angeles. She resides in the Hollywood Hills.

"I loved the show, my son of 4 years old sat through the whole thing and enjoyed the show as well. It's great because it is around Chinese New Year and my husband is Chinese so we are taking them to these cultural events right now," said Lam.

"This is great because you get more of the historical slant on Chinese New Year and history in certain periods than in other Chinese New Year shows with the dragon dances, etc," said Lam, "My favorite performance was the Mongolian bowl dance, because I always loved that and I think it is fascinating."

It was very interesting to see the Chinese classical dancing. I would recommend this to my family and friends.  Happy New Year!,' says Patrick Lam, pictured here with his daughter Mira. (Dan Sanchez/The Epoch Times)

Patrick Lam, Shanda's husband, said "I am here with my daughter Mira and my son Mikai and my mother-in-law. I liked the drumming performance and got interested in the show after seeing some billboards around town. It was very interesting to see the Chinese classical dancing. I would recommend this to my family and friends. Happy New Year!"
