“Overall Cat + Fish Dances delivered an evening that offered themes of finding new in the old and exploring the steadiness of strength. The show was also a way for the whole company to process togetherness again. When I asked the choreographers what dancing with others was like after such a long time of contactless art making, they all expressed a desire to re-learn what togetherness meant for them as individuals and a group. Mar Undag elaborated, “It has been an immense gift to not only create art with these talented and deeply passionate humans, but also to reach outside of ourselves and be able to provide substantive support to others around us as well.” The night was a breath of fresh air for many as the audience buzzed with comments that this was many folks’ first dance performance since the beginning of covid. It was refreshing to see such virtuosic movement in a space with a history of bringing communities together.” - lovedancemore
