recent concert at

Grove Theater Center's
Gem Theater

 Nachtliche Tanze delighted and charmed....
The work left one wanting more.
...a fine company...inspired choreography.
- Los Angeles Times

Martinez took a farcical tone throughout this new piece,
and produced some genuinely amusing scenes.
It was a campy number, giving the dancers an opportunity to play a role,
and they seized the opportunity with gusto.
...light and funny...goofy fun...
-Orange County Register
