On Thin Ice

ON THIN ICE , choregraphed by Company Artistic Director, Maggi Sietsma, fuses movement, film, text and atmospheric sound into a compelling, visually rich and physically exciting dance work which looks at the dysfunctional mix of science, nature and humanity.

"...the combined skills of Sietsma and the company make for a production that, while profoundly thought-provoking, is a delight for the senses...if you need a confirmation that Expressions is a superb dance group, just see this show. Their ensemble work is impeccable and their individual skills are breathtaking."                                         Jan Nary, Arts Hub
