Critics and Crowds Agree: The Gypsy Flame Was a Must-See 

“The wedding scene and the finale are triumphs of skirt swirling stamping zest”

“ the performances are largely superb. Saeeda Kasym fizzles with energy and life, an incarnation of the gypsy spirit she so badly wants to portray, and her other principal dancers fill the stage with energy and joy. The wedding scene and the finale are triumphs of skirt swirling stamping zest. And Kasym’ s solo is strong, tender and full of defiant pride”

“ The Gypsy Flame has a vibrant and captivating life.”

“The dance style is full of elements of flamenco, with hints of Russian traditional dance, two styles that the show tells us developed because of the travels of the Roma. But it has its own identity, not often seen here. It is truly fascinating“

“ it’s a story that needs to be heard.”
