"Lachambre is a stimulator, a magician, a creator of disturbing images and his work questions the accepted forms of representations in dance.... Discovering him is like peering behind the clapboard faade of a Hollywood set and finding Albert Einstein at work." (Dance Theatre Journal)

"It's the fierce originality and brave poetry bubbling up beneath the steps that make her an artist for all time Skura is a great American experimentalist." (Dance Ink)

The Friday 9pm and Saturday 7pm shows feature dance works by SFDI students from around the world.
