What People Are Saying About Compagnie Hervé KOUBI
“There was a mesmerizingly fluid strength in their low-skimming flight and slow tumbling, and whistles were replaced by gasps as one man after another ran up the backs of his fellows to leap or fall backward or be tossed shockingly high into the air.”
The New York Times
“a stunning fusion of acrobatics, gymnastics, b-boying, modern dance, and ballet”
The Washington Post
