REVIEWS:

''The Northern Ballet foyer no longer bristles with the wary fascination of bystanders as Levantes Theatre mixed cupcakes, made paper-chains, flew paper aeroplanes, and scattered confetti into the early gloaming.''
Aled Roberts for ''Canape Art''
Head Receptionist
Northern Ballet’s 2011

''This enchanting performance was a pleasure to watch from start to finish. Bethanie Harrison and Eleni Edipidi designed a warm and happy atmosphere while sharing their world with the audience. Their show was a spirited mix of love, comedy and obsession and was constantly interesting.'' (Method Lab Review, for ''Two Peas Without a Pod'', 2011)

“Without a doubt one of the most intelligent, entertaining and generous works I've ever seen. I can only hope that Levantes Dance Theatre’s strong artistic handwriting will continue enriching and challenging the British arts scene. We need more artists like this.”

“They bring the stage space alive with their strong presence, and striking use of visual environments. This is certainly a company worth looking out for!"
Sally O'Donnell

"The work was highly evolved from both a narrative and production perspective, intriguing and though-provoking yet accessible and entertaining"

“Members of Levantes Dance Theatre trace ambiguous themes of compulsive disorders, pleasures and sins through an intensely visual display. Inventive props and wacky costumes feature high on the agenda…”
Josephine Leask @ Resolution! 2008

“Gin & Satsumas is a surreal cocktail of sensation. Seeming like a circus, with its disappearing floor lights, trapeze wired objects and obligatory cartoon clowns, we are drawn into this incongruous spectacle by Levantes Dance Theatre. Visually stunning, this carnival cascade of cross-dressing strange-faced people doing strange-placed things is curious yet oddly pleasing.”
Mandy Richards @ Resolution! 2008
 
“Often challenging, their previous works have established Levantes Dance Theatre as one of the most innovative modern dance organisations in the country. A powerful critique of glorified normality, Gin & Satsumas is every bit as refreshing as the title suggests”
