REVIEW IN
PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER
Moving to a marvelous Plan B New York Dance Alliance Exchange's last-minute program changes turn out just fine.
From The Philadelphia Inquirer
November 17th, 2003
On Saturday night, Community Education Center became the little performance space
that could, when a dancer's last-minute injury forced changes in a program that
ended up wowing its enthusiastic audience. CEC's intimate space rocked with solo
works by several New Yorkers and a Philadelphian, brought together for this year's
New York Dance Exchange.
Victoria Libertore, new-vaudevillian and HulaHoop champ, performed a series of
sketches - involving lip-synching to Frank Sinatra and others, a Tickle Me Elmo doll,
a dildo, and a half-dozen hoops - that ranged from show-stoppingly funny to
over-the-edge dark humor. Her drunken stagger with glittering hoops was worth
the price of admission; the sharp-eyed battle-of-the-sexes vignettes came for no extra charge.
