REVIEW EXTRACTS 'One of the funniest and most ingenious dances seen in New York in a long time.' The New York Times (Both Sitting Duet)
'A surprisingly endearing conceptual comedy of such unpretentious charm that it seals Burrows and Fargion’s status as a sort of Laurel and Hardy of the avant-garde.' The Times (The Quiet Dance)
