The beginning of the show is really powerful and astonishing, for me, the best part. Then it slows down a bit to explore more poetical or humoristic ways, but without losing an excellent performance of contemporary dance.
A must-see show, without any doubt.

Blink and you miss it! This is a razor-sharp, stand-out piece of contemporary dance. The everyday is cleverly thrown into a curious light, making space for both the playful and the deeply sombre. A performance to get excited about.

This is a fantastic show. Wonderful modern dance, with poignant themes mixed with humour, style and raw talent. My wife isn’t into dance that much, but thought this was the best show she had seen so far at the fringe. Last night - so I thoroughly recommend it.

Innovative and dramatic contemporary dance with a rhythmic beat and endless stamina! Well choreographed and staged. The dancers have a lot of expression in their movement. I wish I had known the theme before I went, but there was still a lot of feeling conveyed through the choreography.

Contemporary dance with amazingly wonderful dancers. It is such a good show that I do not want to blink to miss any details.
There are of so many metaphors in this show. Sparking colorful disco ball inside the frozen fridge, transparent lens filled with passion and pair of lovers/dancers who look through each other, shaking losing weight machine, the battle for drunk bottle...
It reminds me a lot of metaphors I have read in novels. The transparent web of human's desire and the fluid liquid society with are so intrigued and well cultivated at this stage.
Holding the breath, look at them!
It is not merely a show offering a mirror reflecting our life, but it also brilliantly captured some hilarious facts confronting with us.
Look at the dancers' movements but look back to ourselves as individuals as creatures with minds.

Really high quality contemporary dance - the opportunity to see this level of skill and inventiveness close up should not be missed. Fast paced, thought provoking, comic in places .. would highly recommend.
