"Keith McDermott, who appeared in the original production, directs with the choreographer Catherine Galasso. They have cast four dancer-actors (including the downtown favorite Jess Barbagallo), put them in neat cocktail attire and urged them toward an attitude that combines high intensity and low affect."

"Catherine Galasso’s Bring on the Lumière! [...] reclaims the early history of cinema for dance [...] and suggests if we can understand what celluloid meant for corporeality perhaps we can deepen our sense of what “recorporealization” might mean for screendance in the future."

"If you weren't part of the post-modern dance scene in 1970s, you might not know about Andy de Groat, an imaginative minimalist who moved to France in the '80s, leaving behind few traces of his work. The choreographer Catherine Galasso, born in 1982, is well aware that his dances, if not performed, could be forgotten on this side of the Atlantic."
