      This was my first time to see dance carousel, and I left wanting to see more. The show consists of 40 one minute dances, with each choreographer creating 4 different works. Each cycle of 10 started with a dance video created by Ellen Bartel (the show organizer) and Eliot Haynes. The simplicity of the movement, creative editing and music by Adam Sultan combined to create a truly interesting collaboration. In a similar way, Tom Benton's work, performed by him and dancer Kirsche Dickson used simple movement and ideas in a unique way that left me wishing they were longer. Another refreshing series of dances was choreographed by the duo Two Left Feet, who combined great film work with beautiful dancing and communicated complex ideas that left audience members thinking. And then there was the sheer physicality and commanding stage presence of soloist Rosalyn Nasky, and the extremely entertaining dances from Meredith Cook-Knight- All of this combined to make a very enjoyable show.
