This dynamic company comprises exceptionally strong and seasoned performers who continue creating humanistic jobs. Artistic Director Donna Scro Samori, a former principal dancer with the Nikolais/Louis Dance Company and a founding member of Sean Curran Company, has been described by Robert Johnson of the Star-Ledger as “a dancemaker that seizes an audience’s attention and pulls viewers into her space with works that can be gentle or physically aggressive, but are always profoundly sexy.” Whether bodies fly through the air in the full company works or women slowly circle one another in duet, critics have noted that “in all of Donna Scro Samori’s pieces, a recognizable human element surfaces wordlessly and goes straight to the heart.”
