The festivals’ highlights—including the mysteriously moving “Geisha,” by LeeSaar the Company The New Yorker
When Geisha ended, I felt as if I had come face to face with a giant multi-faceted jewel—some sides illuminated in my view, some quite hidden. And that was truly fine. Brooklyn Rail
“I was amazed at the end of the piece just how sucked in to the drama I had become. I’ve seen a good amount of modern dance but never anything so deliberate, passionate and amazing as Leesarr’s Geisha. This is the kind of work that could awaken a love for modern dance.” Oregon Arts & Culture
