Critics
“Artist Susanne Carter is “just doing her art, “just” being who she is. What a concept. I’m sure other people will appreciate this show for its graceful and hilarious dancing, its diversity of music, its diversity of costumes, props and other visuals, its diversity of topics within a cohesive overall theme.” Hope Baugh, www.IndyTheatreHabit.com, Sept. 2, 2008, Indianapolis Fringe Festival.
“Check out the Improscape! This show is an absolute must-see. It’s Mime meets Modern Dance. It is an exploration of the self through movement, costume, and character. Balloons, beach towels, and an amazing moment with a scarf all combine to create a compelling evening. ” Rabid Review, KC Stage/KC Fringe Festival, July 26, 2008
