Press / Reviews
"The dancing in To Dance is great... as pro as what you’d expect on Broadway."
- Everett Goldner of NY Theatre Now
"The overall direction and choreography by Donald Garverick keeps things moving consistently and coherently"
- Jerry Hochman of Critical Dance
"To Dance leaps with energy... Carrey imbues the lead character with grace and defiance, as well as a Broadway-caliber voice and superior dancing skills; Kathryn Morgan, a former member of New York City Ballet, shines as his girlfriend, Galina, dancing with great strength and artistry."
- John-Stuart Fauquet of Time Out New York
