Daniel Gwirtzman Dance Company

Daniel Gwirtzman Dance Company “With an eye for beauty and an exacting attention to detail, Daniel Gwirtzman takes good care of his audience and his performers.

Daniel Gwirtzman Dance Company was “founded upon a philosophy that dance should celebrate human achievement through a combination of discipline and unbound optimism.” The New York Sun (about the Company’s 10th Anniversary season) His ideal of beauty is kind to the body: His choreography celebrates the long lines and musculature of dancers’ bodies. The dancers are flawless and picture perfect too.

” ---Show Business

“Mr. Gwirtzman does know that in dance less can be more. And that’s a good thing for any choreographer to know. He can evoke strong feelings with a few gestures.”
---The New York Times
