BREAKDANCE DOUBLE FEATURE - FRINGE XX

BREAKDANCE DOUBLE FEATURE A Piece of: My Heart (Breaking). @ Tangent Venue #1. A high energy high-jinks dance show with plenty of thrills and chills that are revealed mostly in the first part of the production. Helen Simard and Jennifer Casmir are an amazing duo totally in sink with each other and perfectly coordinated. Very humourous and original creative moves. On the flip side is a very slow and emotional journey demonstrating the power of a young man's crush. Greg Selinger and his raw demonstration of his obsession and heart break through subtle movements is very eclectic. However where the production falters is the transitions, which lacked the respect of a treatment of an equal measure of finesse and creativity. There should have been an announcement and there could have been some music added. Overall easy to relate to, very entertaining, and most importantly accessible to a general audience of all ages. 3 cents. Dee Arr

Thanks for the review of our show! And fear not! There is now music between the pieces, AND programs, so people know what is going on! (we were a bit spaced out before our first show...flew in from Saskatoon at 2am, tech at 10am, show at 1:45pm...we forgot a few things lol)

Anyway thanks again, we appreciate the support!
