Rewrite the paragraph using the -ing form.
I went to watch the ballet The Peony Pavilion last night. Because I thought ballet was more or less the same everywhere，I was totally unprepared for its unique beauty. As soon as the curtain rose，I was absorbed. The performance borrowed a lot from Chinese dance and music，so the Eastern influence on the ballet was clear. The production was full of colours and romantic symbols，and challenged my senses in new ways. I enjoyed it so much that it’s changed my opinion about ballet. I can’t wait to go again!
