“NW Dance Project continues its 20th anniversary season this spring with a triad of debuts under the umbrella Secret Stories. This bill of dances – by choreographers Nicole von Arx, Joseph Hernandez, and Gustavo Ramírez Sansano – approached the theme of “secret stories” through distinct conceptual approaches, forays into social life, political urgency, and hidden space of imagination.” “Speaking motifs were balanced with ensemble dancing and duets that provided nonverbal and emotive touchstones.”   — by Hannah Krafcik, Oregon ArtsWatch

 “shout-outs need to be given to choreographer Nicole von Arx and the eight very busy dancers who were alternately ghostly nymphs, Furies and attendants to the dead. Moving in the background, on the margins or clustering close to the singers, they added poignant depth to the enterprise.” — Review: Orphée+ a bold and breathtaking success for Edmonton Opera by Tom Murray, Edmonton Journal, Canada

“This year Nicole von Arx will come to Missoula through GLUE. Von Arx is renowned internationally for her choreography and has worked on campaigns with many popular companies like Kate Spade and Target.” — by Claire Peterson from 8 KPAX Missoula and Montana News, USA

"Nicole is an artist who listens to her instincts...and fearlessly follows them in her creative process. She is able to create work that takes us on a journey determined to opens our eyes to unexpected discoveries. Her work is complex and effortless, deep and accessible, specific and universal. These are her true and innate gifts, and we are all the better for receiving them." — Eva Stone, Founder/Producer/Curator CHOP SHOP in Seattle, USA

“Apparently, this is an excerpt from a larger work and seeing these six minutes definitely made me want to see more…. The dynamic that I saw in the interpretation, the inventiveness of her attack and the way that she controlled the space and used her energy to go past the screen that I was watching it on really impressed me. So that’s why I selected this work and I’m sure you’ll agree that the quality is just excellent.” — Victor Quijada, Founder and Director of RUBBERBAND on selecting NINE for 92Y Harkness’s The Future Dance Festival

“Hypnotic” — Philip Gardner, Oberon's Grove

“Le Mass, the final new work of the evening, brought not only a new choreographer to the table but also a distinct change of pace. It murmured where the other dancemakers shouted, slowed down where the instinct might be to rush.” — Courtney Escoyne, The Stewardship Report

“explosions of energy" — Quinn Batson, OffOffOff

“Une Battante” ( = a powerhouse in french) — Delphine Gasche, Tribune de Genève
