About Me

WHAT THE CRITICS ARE SAYING ABOUT A Quarreling Pair
"...a richly textured and layered theatrical adventure. Everything works..."
"... a magic mirror, into a complex, dreamlike world in which... imaginations run playfully, riotously wild."
"Who knew that Bill T. Jones could be so playful and so wonderfully, gaudily spectacular?"
-Jennifer Dunning, The New York Times
"Brilliant."
-Robert Johnson, NJ Star Ledger
WHAT THE CRITICS ARE SAYING ABOUT Chapel/Chapter
"Chapel/Chapter is a riveting experience."
"The visceral impact of the piece is inescapable."
"A brilliant blend of abstraction and realistic evocation."
"The quite remarkable music plays a vital role in the overall impact. It is keening, churchy, measured and intense."
-John Rockwell, The New York Times
"Jones owes it to humanity to bring this thoughtful, beautifully wrought work to the widest possible audience."
-Gus Solomons Jr., The Dance Insider
