See It Again

I have always loved dance performances and was highly impressed with this one. The high level of energy throughout. The skill and expertise of each of the 5 performers. The interweaving of the storylines.

Five women on the stage. A beautiful and delicate piece, yet very powerful. A good balance of mood, energy, visual, sound and of course dance. A good piece to reflect on, or just enjoy. And the sound was not too loud! Congratulations to all the staff and artists!

I was captivated from start to finish by the impressive technical abilities of each performer and the way they told a story through movement and expression. Costume changes, lighting, choice of music, solo and group dances make for a varied and highly thought provoking performance, which was over all too soon. I am new to contemporary dance, but I can tell that all five (yes five and not three) performers have years of experience. As another reviewer stated, it would have been helpful for the write-up on this show to mention the names of all five. I found them to be all so skilled and integral to this show that it seems almost wrong to treat the other two as extras. Indeed, one dancer in particular had a grace and control of movement which I found to be extraordinary and worthy of a main character. I highly recommend, and I would see this again.

A must see performance at the festival this year! The dancers do a beautiful job of expressing the story through movement and costumes. The performance is captivating from start to finish, and the combination of dance, music, and visual storytelling makes for a really unique experience. A beautiful and moving performance that I would definitely recommend!

If you're looking for a powerful dance performance, look no further. This group has come together to create something beautiful and tell you a story. The entire show blends beautiful and takes you on an exciting journey. Highly recommend it if you can snag one of their very few remaining tickets! Beautiful collaboration from all the artists involved. Incredible talent on that stage that keeps you engaged and wanting more. Don't miss it!!

Good music, movement that is pleasing to the eye, 50 costume changes. And sold out. Kudos to the dancer who had a baby 12 weeks before.

What a way to start my Fringe Festival!

Ask Me How I’m Feeling show was unbelievable and one thing that everyone should know which differ from show’s write-up is that there are actually five dancers on the floor, and I think that makes a real difference to the piece. The additional dancers add a perfect layer to the composition and storytelling that I found really compelling. Please one of those two additional dancers, who isn’t featured on the poster, was actually my favourite of the five. Her technical ability was seriously impressive, and there were moments when I found myself watching her simply because of the precision, strength and control in her movement.

The choreography isn’t necessarily technically flawless throughout, but that didn’t take away from what worked so well for me. The composition, visual storytelling, the adding elements and way the dancers carried the story through movement were beautiful and engaging. I found myself feeling the story rather than simply watching a series of dance pieces.

Honestly, this was the perfect show to open my Fringe season, and now I am sitting here looking at the Fringe booklet I collected yesterday… and somehow getting more and more excited about the fact that I still have NINE other shows to discover.
