Austin Chronicle - Robert Faires' Top 10 Dance and Classical Treasures of 2017
"Dorothy O'Shea Overbey's 'Crone' paid lush tribute to narrative ballets of yore in a mythic tale inspired by The Rite of Spring [...] with its luxe orchestral score by composer-in-residence Samuel Lipman, colorful and flowing costumes by Aaron Kubacak, and graceful movements, this work had its eye on the present as much as the past[.]"
