"The starting point of Jacques was an exploration of the inner life and drama of the individual dancers. Jack, on the contrary; studies the body's outer edges. Through structure and form, Jack examines the growth, etiquette and power of the group as a collective whole."

“In a physical sense, Barton puts every muscle into play and her choreography is exuberant, even when serious matters are being portrayed. Barton is sexy, cheeky and profound all at the same time.”
