"Norbert de La Cruz is one of the most purely beautiful movers that I have encountered over my years of dance-watching, and he brings elements of his own style to the ballet - smooth and with a sensuous fluidiity - while also incorporating more geometric design patterns. This juxtaposition keepsSQUARE NONE ever-fresh, and Norbert's setting of certain gestural elements on the music is striking. The dancers - all of who seemed to have a natural affinity for the choreography - come and go, linking into movement sub-units and then dispersing, only to appear again in different configurations. The cumulative effect of all the elements made SQUARE ONE both impressive and enjoyable (the two do not always go hand-in-hand) and not only placed the ballet on my top list of 21st-century works to date but made me want to see more of Norbert's work."
