“…a profound compilation of dances examining the relationships in various stages of life and human interconnectedness… brilliant dancers… and generous artistry…”
Avery Pearson, NYtheatre.com review
Eva Dean Dance is “…an unalloyed delight” with an “infinite-seeming range of lithe expressive physicality”.
Jennifer Dunning, The New York Times
"…soothing to watch—with its gentle, mesmerizing choreography—and energizing in that it all looks so fun and free (especially free of pretention and modern-dance conventions).
Pia Catton, Wall Street Journal
CIVRY “is a lighthearted, decorous dance full of counterbalances and gentle supports for falling bodies … it reminded me of why, sometimes, dance matters: in its very lightness, it lifts our cares.” Elizabeth Zimmer, The Village Voice
