"A slow burn that’s more than the sum of its parts. Emma Martin’s new show seeps into the consciousness long after leaving the theatre. Attention is often given to unpicking experiences suppressed in the mind, rather than experiences archived within the body. In Girl Song, choreographer Emma Martin has exposed the raw nerve-map of the unconscious in a cogent meditation on femininity. Her physical metaphor is a large bleak room with just one small door inhabited from time to time by four dancers"

"While unquestionably a multi-disciplinary production, Girl Song’s strength lies in its dance. Exquisitely and superbly choreographed, Girl Song’s potent movement sequences overflow with soft-spoken poignancy and heartfelt tenderness. Always, at the heart of Girl Song, is the child within. A young girl with large, daring, and sometimes fragile dreams pressing against the world that presses against her resilient smallness. A young girl, both within and outside of themselves, these performers seek to honour, celebrate, protect, and nurture. A celebration of girls constantly interrupted, and who constantly interrupt, Girl Song is an unequivocal gift of love for young girls of all ages. Heartfelt and stunningly beautiful, with dance sequences you could watch for days, Girl Song weaves an irresistible magic making it essential viewing. It has one of the biggest hearts, and certainly some of the best choreography to be found anywhere."
