Aaron Lavery - Sunday, October 19/2008

"You would truly be a fool to square up against the eight male dancers that make up this Hereford-based company"

"State of Matter show is an awe-inspiring experience - as close to watching acrobatics or even extreme sports as it is to contemporary dance"

"Lingering celebration of masculinity as an elemenal force"

"The line where street dance stops and contemporary dance begins is distinctly blurred"

"Contemporary dance can be a hard sell to newcomers, but dressed up in a package like this, it's pretty much palatable to all"

"Moments of tight unison...as they leap, somersault and dive across the stage in perfect time"
