"A ferociously energetic performance style with a slick and glossy assault on contemporary values."
The Guardian, Jan 2007

“Dynamic, fast paced action... dancers swing, flip and roll alongside and over each other. Driven employs aerial work with thrilling skill, at one point it even takes on supernatural suggestions”

The Times, Jan 07


“Ingenious choreography with revolving doors…dreamlike narrative”
Birmingham Post, Jan 2007
"The talented cast work right to the limits of their abilities, bringing sensuality and breathtaking moments in equal proportion."

The Stage, Feb 2007


“Offering a subtle questioning of the how and why we live our lives… Motionhouse play humour and tragedy against each other… in a symphony of powerful yet graceful athleticism.”

The Big Issue, May 2007


"Motionhouse Dance Co are Driven to succeed."

The Scotsman, Feb 2007


"Motionhouse... still in the driving seat."

Metro, Jan 2007


"This company take dance and blur the edges, and there are no tutus in sight. They are introducing a lot of people to dance who have never watched it before and this is probably because they’re saying something vital. Kevin Finnan and his crew have managed the impossible: to reflect the problems in society and yet rise above them, quite literally. It’s entertaining and frightening, and inconclusive and dangerously edgy. Catch them while you can!"

Daily Info, March 07


"Driven is a new piece by Motionhouse's artistic director Kevin Finnan, premiered a month ago at Warwick Arts Centre. Its theme is the constant rush of modern everyday life, the way in which we don't have time to consider what we're doing, and how a tragic event can stop us in our tracks and drag us back to reality, however unpleasant that may be."
