“During the coronavirus pandemic, many voices called for changes in the performing arts . . . Down to Earth is a response to those calls.”
“The festival aims to affirm the critical role of art for the economic, social, and mental well-being of all New Yorkers.”
“What makes Down to Earth such an exciting innovation for an arts festival was an interest in bolstering and transforming the environments in which they were presented.”
“The festival leans into the city’s unpredictability, reminding us that art doesn’t need four walls — just an audience.”
“At Down to Earth . . . Tatiana Mosio Bongonga of Compagnie Basinga danced on the high wire with such smiling equipoise that every moment become pure joy for the audience.”
