...the brilliant Angela Harriell...could be the next Susan Stroman.
– Richmond Shepard, Performing Arts INSIDER, totaltheater.com and lively-arts.com, on Nutcracker: Rated R
EXCELLENT, I lubbed it & will go back again & again, definitely rated 'R'. The details in choreography, musical preciseness, and character development are laugh out loud, tears in your eyes, funny. Go see this if you can git in.
– Kat Wildish on Nutcracker: Rated R
Angela Harriell and her 'neo-cabaret' company, The Love Show, have reinvented the Christmas classic...It sure isn't your New York City Ballet Nutcracker, but it's a hell of a lot more fun...classic elegance peppered with contemporary grit.
– Kerri Allen, BackStage.com, on Nutcracker: Rated R
Harriell's visual witticisms are wonderful, from her update of the Battle with the Rat King (now involving the not toy soldiers, but boiler-suited minions of the Health Department, and fought for dominion of the Stahlbaums' restaurant); to the towering Empire State Building that replaces the Christmas tree; to a sad, haunting pas-de-deux by a pair of half-sleeping homeless people.
– R L Nesvet, OffOffOnline.com, on Nutcracker: Rated R
Angela Harriell has created a unique and intriguing work...and a showcase for her considerable talents as a choreographer and dramatist and her cast as dancers and actors.
– Byrne Harrison, StageBuzz.com, on Nutcracker: Rated R
...it was The Love Show that really turned on the crowd. Rhonda Gdasi's rousing rendition of Tom Petty's Honey Bee was pitch perfect for her partners' lascivious motions.
– Ortgeist.com, on the New York Burlesque Festival
The show, a happy and fun piece of work from the opening number to the expertly choreographed, starry eyed closing dance called 'This Moment' had this writer spellbound by the artistry the performers exhibited while they effortlessly handled one demanding routine after another. In a word, impressive!
– Lee 'The Cool Guy', Retrovision Theater, on The Love Show: Because Love Ain't All Hearts and Chocolates
