Reviews:

"The artistry within well-constructed action is another silent partner in entertainments meant to be experienced rather than reflected on. Choreographer Emma Cotter’s HCI (High Claim Item) gave the common spy-adventure spectacle of the high-tech burglary a context all its own, with an original interpretation of a fine art museum heist complete with dancing ninja-thieves and a living painting, in a work which walks away with the treasure of creativity."

"Even better was Emma Cotter’s “HCI: High Claim Item”, which was like Ocean’s Twelve with former Cirque du Soleil members."

The Brick's Comic Book Theater Festival Issue #2 presents:

Out of Frame: Dance + Comics curated by Patrice Miller

"Out of Frame" is a night of collaboration between choreographers and sequential artists, exploring the use of the body to animate comic art. Seven choreographers, including Emma Cotter/RETTOCAMME, tackle this unique challenge in a diverse program of dance.

This original dance/theater piece will feature music made by Loopstock, projected animation by William Torres, and hair/make-up concepts by Amanda Miller. Performers include veteran RETTOCAMME Inc dancers Emily Berry and Elizabeth Douglas.
