REVIEW EXTRACTS
‘Pushing and stretching herself almost to breaking point, Houstoun seems to be showing us that dance is not necessarily a country reserved for the young. Whatever her game, one thing is clear: she is a survivor no matter what the odds.’ Allen Robertson. Times Online (Keep Dancing)
'Insightful, innovative works [that] speak clearly to audiences while remaining sophisticated and meaningful, making art accessible even for the most inexperienced festival-goer.’ The Age (Desert Island Dances)
‘Sheer imagination from beginning to end.’ Seth, age 8, Donacaster
