"Glass House, a shimmering, shattering, immersive, layered, intermedia performance from Volta Collective … director and choreographer Mamie Green creates a house that pulses with mental disruption and colliding emotion."
-LA Review of Books"[Glass House is] … something modern that makes undeniable emotions and provocative ideas out of ambiguity, strangeness, and abstraction."
-Document Journal"Green is just so sure in sculpting the narrative with bodies… — felt like the most successful leveling of high art and ‘low art’ I had seen in a long time."
-LA Dance Chronicle".. this is movement the audience can feel. Volta’s dancers carried one another the way we ourselves shoulder our friends, lovers, and family — occasionally laboriously — as we build our homes: sometimes dragging them, sometimes exalting them."
