BWW Review: LULA WASHINGTON DANCE THEATRE is an Entity All its Own at The Ford Theatre
Lula Washington, an L. A. native from Watts, along with her husband Erwin Washington and daughter Tamica Washington Miller, have been the incumbent founders, creators, directors and choreographers of the LULA WASHINGTON DANCE THEATRE since 1980. They began with the goal to motivate, educate, inspire, challenge and enrich the lives of young people so they could become successful, productive and competitive citizens. Thirty years later, and now a major dance company all over the world, their appearance here in Los Angeles at The Ford Theatre was an incredible ensemble of dance works choreographed by a variety of talented artists, including Lula and Tamica, and performed by one of the most powerful, strong and exciting company of dancers on the planet.

BWW Reviews: ROCK THE BALLET Admiralspalast, Berlin
Es war der legendare Fred Astaire, der folgenden Satz pragte: 'Tanz ist ein Telegramm an die Erde mit der Bitte um Aufhebung der Schwerkraft.' Die Bad Boys des Tanzes unter der Leitung und Choreografie von Rasta Thomas gastierten im Admiralspalast Berlin mit ihrer mitreißenden Show 'Rock the Ballet'. DIe Schwerkraft wird an diesem Abend gleich mehrere Male aufgehoben, denn dass was das hochkaratigem siebenkopfige Ensemble bietet ist schlichtweg atemberaubend.
