Check Out Another Review Featuring GDC
October 23, 2013 By
“The show began with Gin Dance Company’s The Core, an almost meditative piece full of preciseness and delicacy. The five dancers, wrapped in white chiffon-like fabric, shifted in small individual sections of the stage. While they did not interact with one another physically, their repetitive phrasing and direct focus created a lovely connection throughout the piece…” Check out another review of the ‘Yes! Dance Invitational’ featuring GDC.

Dance Review of the ‘Yes! Dance Invitational’ from the Richmond Times-Dispatch
October 21, 2013 By
Extra!! Extra!! Dance review of the ‘Yes! Dance Invitational’ from the Richmond Times-Dispatch!! ”
“Gin Dance Company, from Northern Virginia, featuring choreography by Shu-Chen Cuff set to music by Patrick Burke and R. Luke Dubois opened the show, immediately placing audience expectations high.
The sharp isolations and angles contrasted with smooth, long lines revealed intelligent and creative dance composition. The sporadic fidgets of the dancers were a welcomed surprise, and there was just enough unison and variation throughout the piece.
Shu-Chen Cuff’s beautiful facial expressions and detailed finger movements reminded the audience how lovely details can be.”
