The Cheerleader

Tanz / Theater Solo

Von Lloyd Bradford (Brad) Syke, Australian Stage Online, 6. März, 2009

The Cheerleader couldn't be, by contrast, more down-to-earth, almost burlesque in its naughtiness.
I'm not sure its message of slavish, mindless subservience was entirely conveyed, but a good time was had by all, including, I think, dancer Tamarah Tossey, who choreographed, with direction from Gary Joplin. Brave, brazen, cheeky (in more ways than one); Toni Basel's 'Hey, Mickey!' signalled the irony.
Van Halen and Georgette Baker were in there, too. Fun, fun, fun and a terrific teaser for week 3, which promises, among other surprises, exotic pole-dancers, hailing from the urban landscape of The Cross. Parental guidance advised!


Badische Zeitung, November 2007

“Voll beißender Ironie und fast filmischer Sequenzen das Stück “The Cheerleader” der Amerikanerin Tamarah Tossey, die mit eingefrorenem Zahnpasta-Strahlen, wippendem Pferdeschwanz und energisch schwingenden Bastbüscheln mächtig Stimmung macht – für wen auch immer.”
