“BARKIN/SELISSEN steal this show with a male/female duet of impeccable clarity, with big, quick contact tricks and excellent acting and partnering. The title, Et Tu, gives a quick synopsis of this story of a boy and a girl. NICE.”

“Kyla Barkin and Aaron Selissen's excerpt from Sequitur or Non evoked an equally sensuous and sinister quality, employing limbs as tentacles... Overall, the evening's polish, fine dancing and choreographic invention made one memorable opening night for this Huntsville jewel of a dance space.”
