Critical Acclaim for Don McLeod

"McLeod's voiceless, primal drama is beautiful . . ."
 --Hollywood Reporter

 "The first Westerner I've seen, who performs with the same intensity as that of Butoh's founder, Hijikata.  McLeod creates a medium of primal connections.  His work in Dreams From the Floating World is a realization of the similarities in all cultures, yet it undermines preconceived notions of how the self is viewed. Part dark cabaret, part mime, with the overall physicality of dance and the expressiveness of theatre ...all these elements are included in an unforgettable evening of butoh."
 --Yonetani Yoshi, Art-Circle Mutant Theatre Group Osaka, Japan  

"As the best movement artist we've seen ... he reflects a warm and winning personality which completely captured the attention of the sold-out concert series finale."
--Washington State University  

"His performance at UCLA provided an evening of artistry rarely seen in live theatre today...great music and damn good entertainment that makes one think. There were no seats left...and the audience hung on his every move..."  
--Los Angeles Free Press  

"McLeod is a creative genius. He has taken a unique art form and updated it into something of rare beauty."
--The Newhall Signal

"Excitingly different . . . we were thrilled to have Don McLeod on the show."  
--Jane Pauley, NBC's Today Show

"McLeod is the Prince of mime." 
--Los Angeles Times

"The best gorilla actor I've ever seen . . . Thanks for a great show."
--Jane Fonda
