Bio
Angelus Squid Marr
In this belated review, I would like to convey my clear and very warm memories of having worked with Lucia from June - December 2016, on the project "Missing Parts" (produced by Chinese Arts Space - now Chinese Arts Now), for which I created the music for her choreography. Lucia interviewed, briefed and directly managed my work. It was wonderful to work with Lucia as her approach was holistic and organised. She was open-minded to my creative ideas, tactful in her feedback, responsive to my feedback and always made my efforts and opinion feel valued - whether we communicated by email, skype or in rehearsal. In addition to her management skills, she created a beautiful choreography and I observed that her instruction of the dancers showed patience as well as enthusiasm. I would highly recommend working with Lucia.
