dirac Posted August 14, 2022 Author Share Posted August 14, 2022 A review of the Ballet of the Teatro dell’Opera di Roma by Ilona Landgraf in her blog, "Landgraf on Dance." Quote Unfortunately, the ballet was not perfect. The first few minutes of the first scene’s Feast of Fools made it clear that this production was ill-chosen for this stage. It may have worked well in a medium-sized indoor stage supported by a complete décor, but surrounded by the monumental remnants of the Roman empire, it looked weak and at times ridiculous. The group scenes designed by Petit proved far too simple and repetitive; I was reminded of wooden jumping-jacks marching mechanically in sync. ..... Link to comment

dirac Posted August 14, 2022 Author Share Posted August 14, 2022 A review of the dance offerings at the Edinburgh Fringe by Kelly Apter in The Scotsman. Quote Sometimes dance breaks boundaries, sometimes it delves deep into your soul or makes a political statement. Other times, as with Beats on Pointe, it simply impresses, entertains and leaves it at that. Nothing this show has to offer goes beneath the surface, but it’s executed with such fantastic skill, passion and energy that you can’t help falling in love with it. Link to comment
