“Particularly masterly... Highly charged and emotionally riveting work.”
“Weaving a delicate, dream like ambience, then building to a crescendo that at once holds the dance and gently follows it.”
“A marvelous event opened the Dance Camera West Film Festival... Suddenly a tall tube of ruby fabric mysteriously appeared and began to sway in the balmy air... It was dance maker Sarah Elgart’ s fine execution... (using) choreography to augment a familiar locale and cause the audience to see with new eyes.”
“Elgart has engaged audiences with site-specific projects that have transformed bus terminals, airports and museums into veritable action paintings.”
“Even a modicum of marvel (is) generally out of fashion during these skeptical days. But there are artists like choreographer Sarah Elgart who are making miracles. ”
“Acrobatic and graceful... Dancers are indiscernible from travelers: bags in hand, suits adjusted, they are perfectly camouflaged until they begin to break down the everyday quality of their gestures in favor of hyperbole and a loose collapsing chorus line.”
“Meanwhile, dancers choreographed by Sarah Elgart writhed inside colored fabric like fetuses desperate to escape the womb. This multimedia experience… was an impressive and affecting spectacle.”
