“Tackling The Rite of Spring is a challenge in itself. Janusz Orlik met this challenge with so much vigor as to exploit fully the potential of both dance and music.”
“We see the dancers make a sacrifice of themselves to the audience but what comes to the forefront, perhaps even to the point of being self-sufficient, is their mutual interaction. Their sacrifice comes about through this interaction.”
“Orlik’s choreography is full of fine virtuosity mixed with all-pervasive eroticism, vitality and charm.”
