Eva Yaa Asantewaa’s “Playing Favorites . . . of 2011”
Group Dynamics and Visual Sensitivity and Ursula’s performance in It listed among the year’s best performance
“Ms. Eagly is one of the few choreographers I can think of whose work actually frightens.
She has a tall, unbelievably fluid body (her every joint looks double), a mane of blond hair and, in performance, the gaze of someone only pretending to be human. In ‘Fields of Ida,’ surrounded by floor and table lamps from her apartment, she hinged and lunged, folding her long limbs in ways they should never be folded. She looked like a creature out of Blake’s fantastical engravings.”

“Ms. Eagly’s darkly humorous, often violent imagination is to be treasured, and cultivated.
You want to follow her rabbit-hole logic, even when stymied by it.”

“spooky, languid…strange, bewitching”
“always quirky, fun, disturbing, funny and unexpected”
“quirky, with a bizarre, dark logic that is mysterious and intriguing”
