Reviews
"Nobody on the eight-part bill outdanced the companies run by Orange County's Jennifer Backhaus and San
Francisco's Viktor Kabaniaev. In 'Push,' an imaginative, brilliantly realized Backhaus partnering experiment, Andrea Brache and William Lu always seemed to be leaning into each other, balanced at the most precarious angles, absolute in their trust."
- Lewis Segal, LA Times
“Push" an intimate duet that explored the tension between opposition and support, was a departure for Jennifer
Backhaus, who often presents lavish ensemble pieces...elements of unusual choreography, an artful aesthetic, and surprise…gripping work.”
- Rachel Levin, ExploreDance.com
