The directors do an excellent job of pacing and blocking this madcap production.

Nancy Bishop, Third Coast Review (about Nana)

The song and dance numbers were quite good, and flawlessly performed

 Bill Esler, Buzz Center Stage (about Nana)

The ensemble choreography by Miguel Long (who also performs) creates a living, breathing backdrop that reacts to the goings-on downstage and gives the viewer license to interpret the setting however they want.

Tristan Bruns, New City Chicago (about Bowie in Warsaw)

For this writer, though, the best of the best is the choreography for which she shares credit with the entire cast. The secret society ensemble moves are a hoot; the break dancing competition that comes later even better.

Amy Munice, Picture This Post (about Monsieur D’eon is a Woman)

The large, diverse cast is uniformly strong.

Nancy Bishop, Third Coast Review (about Monsieur D’eon is a Woman)

The entire production is tightly blocked and choreographed by director Nicole Wiesner and dance choreographer Miguel Long.
