"Most vivid in my mind... is Igal Perry’s impeccable taste in music and his ability to expertly choreograph in a way that actually adds to the power of the music... The performers were impressive, brilliantly executing the steps and often moving well beyond the challenging technicality of the choreography."
Chriselle Tidrick, January 2000

“Stylistic versatility and a distinctive international flavor – most apparent in the emotional nuances given each work – are company hallmarks.”

“I couldn’t take my eyes off them…Igal Perry has built a strong repertory and assembled a talented ensemble to perform these works. Watch for continued growth – their momentum is building…There’s no space to recognize all the dancers, which I regret since no one was ‘just adequate.’ All were very gifted and did not just dance well but really inhabited the works they performed.”
