The Australian  - May 8 2000

The Days Allotted To Me has strength, grittiness, a complete absence of sentimentalism, and confident performances. Allen Brissenden

The Adelaide Review - June 2000

It was an amazing and liberating experience. After seeing rather a lot of shallow contemporary dance recently, I felt that I had come home again to dance which dared to express what other art forms cannot. Its rough, sculptural beauty, the repeated challenging question of whether fate is written in the hand and the daring confrontation with suffering and disability, were an affirmation of the power of dance to get to the heart of the matter. The symbolism was simple, but convincing; the 17 dancers were at the centre of their own drama which was at times electrifying. Shirley Stott Despoja

dB Magazine - May 2000

Darkly intelligent, emotionally gripping and incredibly honest... David O'Brien
