“Gabrielle Nankivell is an incredible dancer… the piece is polished and effective”
– Chloe Smethurst – The Age
The experiential design of Gabrielle Nankivell’s performance looks to today’s culture for inspiration- cinema, traditions of storytelling, social discourse and instinctual desire for emotional connection. The resulting performance is a ride for the senses of performer and audience alike, embracing fear, laughter, tears and irony as the story of each unfolds.
“This Is Humanity Stripped Bare: A catalogue of fears, hopes, dreams – and dreams-crushed – are made temporarily ethereal before vanishing in darkness…I Left My Shoes On Warm Concrete And Stood In The Rain is another impressive contribution to contemporary dance”
Chris Hawthorne – Laneway Magazine, 2009
