Voices of LA produced by the Brockus Project | Dec. 10-11th, 2016

Pieces performed: “And the Muse Gave Me Vision” & “To the Eye of the Storm”, excerpts from “The Muse”

“Sean Greene is the Artistic Director/Choreographer of Shieldwall Dance Company. His work is often dramatic and very physical; sometimes pushing his dancers to their physical limits. In And the Muse Gave Me Vision and To the Eye of the Storm, both excerpts from his work The Muse, Greene once again tests those boundaries. In And the Muse Gave Me Vision, Greene explores the muse’s influence or role in the artist’s creation. Here, the artist’s creation takes the form of a newborn child that eventually takes on a life of her own and heads off in directions not foreseen by the artist.” – Jeff Slayton, Dec. 10th, 2016

“Greene’s choreography is what some would reference as “old modern dance” because his work is about emotions. It is not abstract in the sense of postmodern dance or the avant-garde. Greene isn’t afraid of expressing feelings through his work and he has gathered together a dedicated group of young dancers who, in spite of a very small audience opening night, performed like they were at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion with a sold out house.” – Jeff Slayton, July 30, 2016

Pico Union Project: 1153 Valencia St., Los Angeles 90015

Piece performed: Betrayals (2016)

“This brings me smiles. This performance about Betrayal in a relationship was so thought provoking, I know everyone in the room felt the message! We can all relate to that “one thing” that tries to come in and distract us, whether it’s in a relationship or in everyday life goals. I know everyone walked away awed by your passion-filled performance. Great choreography and execution.” – LA Event Guide (@thisweekin_la)

Los Angeles Dance Festival 2016 (LADF) | April 17, 2016

Piece performed: Betrayals (2016)

“Sean Greene who for many years performed with the Bella Lewitzky Dance Company, is a one of Los Angeles’s most amazing dancers to grace its stage. Now he is bringing his own choreographic voice with the formation of Sean Greene’s Shieldwall Dance Company. His dance Betrayals gives us an intimate look into the eternal love triangle; one man in love or in lust with two women. We see him love and reject both women only to return to his original partner. We also see their pain and anger. At times the choreography borders on violence and then it is overtly sexual and loving. There were moments when entanglements and lifts came close to injuring the performers whether through excitement or lack of rehearsal. Greene got his point across because I almost cheered when both women summoned the strength and smarts to conquer and expel their common lover. Strong performances were delivered by Leslie Duner, Charlotte Katherine Smith and Jake Waiblinger.” – Jeff Slayton, April 19, 2016
