G41 loves FireBox

G41 newspaper reviewed S/S07 on Sunday evening and it seems they quite liked it. We had a bit of a nightmare on Sunday between hired data projectors that weren't usable in the theatre, lighting cues being missed, sound being distorted and dancers standing on nails and shards of glass on the stage so it's safe to say I felt a little bit deflated after the performance and just felt that the technical side of things wasn't up to scratch. For those of you who haven't seen a FireBox performance, I like my technical things and use lots of films and precise lighting in my choreography.

After all that I was really pleased when so many people in the audience said they loved it and wanted to see more (although it would have been much better had the tech side of things matched up to the dancers).

'FireBox Dance Theatre had me dazzled'
'electric, tribal and sassy it was extremely inspiring'
'eclectic mix of urban cool & ala disco queens - brilliant stuff!'
'a beautiful array of fresh moves'
'it was awesome'

That's an awesome review - well done! Shame about all the technical hiccups, but imagine where you can go from now even with a few things that you weren't too pleased with.
Well done! X

Yes I was quite pleased with myself after reading that.

There are also a few exciting America things that are hopefully happening but unconfirmed at the mo so I'm keeping schtum until I know definitely.

Ahem, also I sent you an email... can I expect a reply at any point? xx
