what the press says...


“...a beguiling treat for eye and ear, a body-mind riff in the spirit of Pilobolus and Mummenschanz. It should enthrall children as well as adults.” Seattle Times

“Extraordinary instruments!” Singapore Business Times

“Simply presented and light-hearted, this is a show that can honestly claim to be what so many acts (only) promise to be: original" The Scotsman (Scotland)

".....an experience that is nothing short of sublime."
The List ( Edinburgh & Glasgow)

“In an hour of amusing evolutions the artists progressively conquered the warm support of the public….A poetic show by Compagnia Lelavision” Corriere Mercantile (Italy)

“The work (of Lamblin and Mann) transported the audience to another environment where movement and sound occurred as if being experienced for the first time.”
Art Papers (Southeastern US)

Unlike many other instrument builder/inventors, Lamblin has not begun to specialize in a particular genre of instruments, and one can only look to the future with anticipation for the fantastic instruments that will be born of this artist’s fertile imagination!
Experimental Musical Instruments Magazine

“Their work has a freshness and unexpectedness that is essentially playful in its approach.....the sense of childhood play, of concentrated horsing-around, is very much evident. It’s a quality that is an essential element of truly inspired art-making.
Seattle Times

“Very unusual, highly musical and inventive soundscape... Ela’s music pulls you inside...(It) tinkles and builds and swirls and will amaze your sensibilities.”
Victory Review (Canada)

“Maybe it’s her compassion and insight, which influence her art . It could be her willingness and ability to look inside herself and study the fears, hopes and happiness that she shares with humanity. ..... For Leah Mann, dance is the structure upon which a better world can be found.” Creative Loafing, Atlanta

“Some of the most inspired work in Seattle.” Seattle Weekly

"This highly innovative performance delights and amuses, and springs many surprises." The Stage (London)
