"...the evening's most dynamic group moves…”
-Lewis Segal, Los Angeles Times
--------------
"Terri Best's 20-minute The Union, set to string quartet selections by Philip Glass, featured thrilling, in-your-face unison clusters and a soaring sense of promise…”
-Victoria Looseleaf, Los Angeles Times
--------------
“Terri Best Dance almost bent the passage of time with its unexpected slow shifts in tempo, deftly controlled timing, muscular suspension, well-honed choreography and refined delivery in Threshold.”
-Lisa Kato, The Daily Fitchett
--------------
“Terri Best Dance’s Threshold was danced beautifully at the borders of strength and tenderness, closeness and distance.”
-Rachel Levin, Explore Dance
--------------
“Setting the tone for the deepest sense of communication between two dancers was Terri Best’s Threshold, which delivered a powerful and personal statement of connection…played out in the emotional and complex partnering. It felt like the most ardent and searching dancing on the evening’s program, and demonstrated how sophistication and technical excellence can amplify choreographic impulses.”
-Steven Woodruff, Dance Plug
--------------
“An ethereal duet best described as two lovers meeting across time and space in a lucid dream. The dancers moved between perfect synchronicity and a conversational exchange of movements that portrayed a deep emotiveness. It was a beautifully executed and stirring piece that left me wanting more.”
-Vanessa Adelmann, The Dancer Within
--------------
“In Terri Best’s inimitable Through the Desert…dancers pour in and out of their lines across a desert stage…[with] fluid grace.”
-Colleen McLellan, Culture Spot L.A.
--------------
“Making an impression was Terri Best and Through the Desert, an effective ensemble piece [in which the] large cast played well as a weighty counterbalance to the spare balladry of Sinead O’Connor’s ‘I Do Not Want What I Haven’t Got’.”
-Steven Woodruff, Dance Plug
--------------
"Leave it to the immensely talented Best to present explosive and sweeping movement, full of classical technique."
-Alex Little, Dance Informa Magazine
