“…. through their charisma, Adams, artistic director of Fellow Travelers, and McArthur, owner of Des Moines’ DanzArt Studio, win us over. The two have an easy chemistry that helps to accent the tentpoles of a show that veers from fanciful entertainment to gutting gravitas.”

Rohan Preston - Minnesota Star Tribune (August 5, 2024)

“While eroticism and mystery often infuse her imagery, Adams is not content to stop there; she subverts the images by attaching a Beckettian silliness to them.”

Ann Murphy - SF Weekly

“A keen sense for juxtaposing images and forging surprising correspondences. FTPG's triumph rests in managing to tell a story in a different way. Take its work as an opportunity to flex your synapses, or sit back and allow the rich imagery to unfold in all its visual wit.”   

Sima Belmar - San Francisco Bay Guardian

“Adams’ aims seem modest, simply because everything she does here, she does superbly. Her achievements, however, are great. Her messages are so clear that a child could instantly see what she means, yet she is not simplistic or at all predictable. She is an artist who will bear watching.”

Jane Rigney- New York Tribune

 

“Whimsical anecdotage is light on it’s feet. Adams attempts a mix of humor, pathos and nostalgia and comes up a winner… Adams knows how to project a text in a professional manner, and she knows, too, how to transmute a personal memory into a universal experience.”

Allan Ulrich, San Francisco Examiner

 

“If there was any justice in the world, Fellow Travelers Performance Group would have enough funding to take its fresh and appealing choreography around the country. You’re just about guaranteed an evening of sophisticated dance, with pieces sharply detailed, and wonderfully timed; props, music, language and movement combined to make iconic little pieces of dance theater.”
