Sharron is
a most expressive dancer with great storytelling talent. She
brings to her work an ability to involve the audience in the
inner beauty of the movement and in the revelations of the
spirit.
"Excellent
innovation...Her experimentation and forrays into speech,
singing, dancing, juxtaposing, video recordings on three monitors,
exploring space, time, "weaving, patterns of infinite
possibility", drawing from Kathak, which she has studied
from Sitara Devi, using different locales, reminiscing the
50's, at times autobiographical, and at times almost offering
a critique and attempting cross-cultural interpretation, were
quite impressive." "Her innate
sense of rythm and 'laya' makes her a natural for dance -
both Indian and Western" "It was awe
inspiring to see the way she performed with such an amazing
mastery over the Kathak style. The footwork and the elegant
way of sounding the ghunghru (ankle bells) proved that she
could perform any intricate style of dance with quite an ease."
Sharron Rose
combines a consummate mastery of eastern dance disciplines
with a modern sensibility of what will most effectively communicate
the spirit of these ancient arts to a contemporary western
audience. The result is a refined yet electrifying, incandescent
blaze of flamelike motion that transforms a stage into a temple
of divine bliss. Sharrons transcendent movements have
the power to transport the audience through the sacred portals
of heightened awareness to witness a breathtaking vision of
sacred beauty. ---Sunil Kothari, Indian Express, New Delhi
