“MM2 presented the first of their new concert series BREATH premiering four new works by the troupe’s dancers- upping their game with a dynamic choreographic voice, individual artistry and ensemble esprit.”

“Creating well-crafted work, which they dance themselves, these dedicated performers specialize in open-air performances, often in parks and gardens, where they encourage interaction with their environments. It’s thrilling to watch them slide on the silvery light of the moon, as I discovered when seeing them for the first time at Toronto Botanical Gardens where they were making their Canadian debut. Together with the capacity crowd, I sat mesmerized as the dancers — barefoot and just as emotionally naked– flung themselves with abandon into the elements, electrifying the air around them. As they danced, cicada hummed and the waters in a nearby fountain splashed, giving happy accompaniment. It was, for all concerned, a brilliant colliding of divergent worlds: art meets nature beneath a celestial sky. “
– Deirdre Kelly, Author, Dance Critic for the Globe and Mail, Toronto, Canada

“I cannot thank YOU and the dancers enough for your performances on Sunday. All of them were such a unique, wonderful addition to the festival. You raised the bar on professionalism, non-traditional venue, public space, 6-person solo bill. It was really really inspiring and sweetly satisfying, and I personally – as an audience member – enjoyed the hell out of my afternoon.”
– Amanda Grove, SoLow Festival, Philadelphia
