Isabelle’s Dance, William Forsythe
“The Frankfurt Ballet ensemble, all around talents, throw themselves into singing, acting and dancing with unabandoned lust. Thsi si especially true of Helen Pickett who plays the starlet, Roxy.”
– Gerald Siegmund, Frankfurter Allgemeine
“The dancers of Frankfurt Ballet are singers and comedians with gifts unsurpassed. The laughs are big. Helen Pickett is the indefatigable star.”
– Le Figaro, Rene Sirvin Paris
Mr Galloway and Roxy (Steven Galloway and Helen Pickett)
The Vile Parody of Address, William Forsythe
“Helen Pickett, the first solo, lovely in her fluid movements.”
– Clement Crisp, Paris
Steptext, William Forsythe
Ion Garnika and Helen Pickett
“Helen Pickett, as the vigorous, straightforward woman in red, seizes the moment, takes action and keeps her three men busy, on a short and long line. The precision of the piece, between the melody and the movement, the way it vibrates and trembles, makes this dance dynamically energized. The momentum is wild. The atmosphere is cool, clear and very present.”
– Manuel Brug, Frankfurter Allgemeine, for, Steptext, William Fosrythe, 1995
