"Branch Nebula’s Paradise City is cool, slick and refreshingly innovative in concept, design and execution.” – The Age, 16 May 2008


“Paradise City brings urban-youth performance modes in off the street, showcasing their artistry and technical accomplishment for an audience who may not necessarily have considered them in an arts context before. These movements are deliberately choreographed to introduce a gasp factor but, at other times, you know the close calls are unintended. It’s quite a feat of skill, precision and strength and it’s the performers’ awareness of each other’s space that makes the work come off as seamlessly as it does. ” – The West Australian, 2 May 2008


“Intriguing, fascinating, sensual and powerful… A thrilling, powerful performance… Paradise City provides a perfect combination of arts and city life for those who adore contemporary dance and urban culture.” – Australian Stage Online, May 2008


“An intensely absorbing, lyrical, nightlife street culture fantasia… Branch Nebula’s Lee Wilson and Mirabelle Wouters have created a work of poetic intensity out of everyday play, dance and physical theatre, making the most of oscillations between stillness and action and, above all and magically, of the strange time-space in between… More and more audiences should be invited into this strange paradise.” – RealTime, Feb 2007
