MARTHA @ PRESS |
"Richard Move's channeling of the modern dance diva is too brilliant for words".
Time Out New York |
"I've seen quite a few people who imitate Martha... but it was never the essence of Martha, you know?"
...Martha is a cult figure, of course. Richard reflects her thoughts so brilliantly and precisely. It's amusing,
it's very clever and it's well-danced. It's to the point".
Mikhail Baryshnikov in Time Out New York |
"A clever, disarming dance tribute to Martha Graham".
The New York Times |
"Move has come up with an evening that shows what theatre, at it's best, can do. It is entertaining, original
and thought-provoking. And by juxtaposing genuine Martha wisdom alongside todays creative talents he
provides a context both for Graham's innovation and the developments she indirectly inspired".
The Daily Telegraph, London |
"Sophisticated, dead on, letter perfect parody. A dandy education in modern dance".
The Village Voice |
"After meeting him, I realized that he's not poking fun at Martha, it's genuinely an homage to her aesthetic,
her philosophy, her passion for dance. I'd seen him on video tape, and I thought his ability to pick up the
essence of Martha was extraordinary".
Bonnie Oda Homsey, former member of the Martha Graham Company |
"With witty puns, savage eye-rolling glances and stiff-jawed dignity, a robed Richard Move uncannily evoked
the diva presence of deceased modern dance icon Martha Graham...".
The Los Angeles Times |
"Vocally immaculate, (Move) is Graham, and a perfect repository of all her glamour and camp genius".
THE STAGE,London |
"...Move has turned a personal artistic obsession into one of the New York dance scene's most delicious
success stories".
The London Times New York |
"...hilarious and technically perfect".
VOGUE Magazine |
"...downtown's hot ticket".
The New Yorker |
"Richard Move brings Martha Graham back to life".
The Los Angeles Times |
" Richard Move is a genius. He's more Martha Graham than Martha Graham was."
