“Truly possessive of a star quality the room seems to shine brighter because of her light…”
— Idanz review from APAP 2010
“There is no undercover talent here as camille shines like a star on stage. with the use of breath, her movements seem effortless. The lines created on her body are clean and exact, and the theatrical choreography draws me in emotionally and spiritually. Each movement speaks the words of her story. Camille opens the eyes and ears of the audience as she vividly reads us a story about her grandmother through dance. Bravo Camille for a beautiful performance and for waking up the spirit of your grandmother on stage.”
