Penguins, Puppies & Porn (12 Billion)
by Dan Asher "...we are in God's waiting room where sick Long Legged Lizzie has come to beg God to return to earth and help us all. Actress Chantel Cherisse Lucier's character work is excellent. At one point, I felt claustrophobic and panicked at her embodiment of the human race's final stages of its debilitating terminal disease." by Wally Rubin, 2004-2005
chantel cherisse lucier was in a series of articles entitled "Six in the City" which followed six actors over the course of a year and their development and philosophy as actors in New York City. by Judith Coburn, 2001

by Rita Feliciano ODC Theater Performance Gallery "Lucier is a lovely, even alluring dancer whose solo Asa Nisi Masa (Anima: The Soul) rolled effectively along its diagonal trajectory from darkness to light." Walking the Walk
by Heather Wisner ODC Theater Performance Gallery "The difference between good work and great work is the difference between knowing a few things and being able to do something with what you know. The women of Tread Dance Theatre, choreographers carmen carnes, Chantel Lucier, and Robin Kurland, know plenty... The most successful dances are the understated ones. In her solo Asa Nisi Masa (Anima: The Soul), set to Gorecki's Symphony No. 3, Lucier travels meditatively along the diagonal, illuminated by a swath of white light, her elegant port de bras carving the space around her. She maintains a gentle, lyrical momentum throughout the piece, moving steadily and deliberately from a dip into flexed-foot arabesque penchee to a backward roll up onto the shoulders, her hips swiveling side to side as she bicycles her legs in the air." Girl Time
by Apollinaire Scherr "Chantel Lucier's Asa Nisi Masa (Anima: The Soul) succeeds in intensifying the space around her. Making her way in fluid swoops along a diagonal of light. Lucier turns space into a viscous presence. She is pitted against it, her thick liquid partner, in a combative duet. She falls into it, pulls away, gathers it to her, and scatters it outward."

Justice League "Overtime is a success. XOB continues to render their ideas cleanly and with humor..." |
