    • 2015 November 6, Mike Hale, “Review: ‘Flesh and Bone,’ a Ballet Drama With Strippers”, in New York Times[1]:
      The story of an ingénue from Pittsburgh (invoking another ’80s-’90s bellwether, “Flashdance”) who takes New York by storm, “Flesh and Bone” is a solemn gigglefest, too wintry in its look and deliberate in its pacing to ascend to true camp status, but still ripe for group viewing and drinking games.
