Gate Theory - audience comments


"The performance managed to speak to primal instincts or feelings such as trust and protection, and those feelings have stayed with me! ... the experience to give yourself over to an unknown person and to feel no fear touches areas which lie much deeper than superficial body contact ... I didn't know who this person was: how old s/he is, whether s/he's tall or short, beautiful or ugly, not even whether it was a man or a woman
... you made touch itself experiential, like a principle, just like love exists as a principle, released from being a special one-time occurrence between two people.
All things considered it was a very beautiful experience, which, like all beautiful experiences, leaves behind a slight longing."

"... a very generous atmosphere, modest and kind. I was kept curious about what was coming next, and enjoyed the intimacy ..."

"Your performance left a lasting impression on me. It felt especially good to perceive things "differently" with my senses, to go deep inside myself. That was a very beautiful journey, which I would gladly undertake many more times."
