“ReAWaken is a work of tremendous force and impact. Three women in a state of high distress — their bodies shuttering and erupting — inhabit a shattered, smokey space saturated with red light. The dancers are ferocious, and spectacular. The choreography carries the distinctive signature of an uncompromising creator.”

“I had the privilege of seeing the magical tour de force of Meghann Michalsky’s ‘ReAwaken’ at the Dance Made in Canada Festival, August 2023. This dance creation left a lasting impression. I have seen many dance choreographies over the course of my career in contemporary dance and compare ReAwaken to the best.  Directly after viewing the performance my colleagues and I commented that the depth of her work was astounding!

One does not see a choreographer of this exceptional ability come along very often. I wish Meghann all the best in her career and look forward to seeing her genius grow and flourish.”

“I was immediately struck by their technical sophistication and obvious commitment to dance as art and craft. The piece is viscerally aggressive to the edge of pugnacious. Semchuck and Michalsky were physically and technically so well equated and on point, in choreography that pushes at the outer limits of highly combative partnering.”

“ I only curate highly trained and physical dance works and your work fall into that category.”
