"While this is a significant contribution to the field of dance and performance studies, it is also an invaluable resource for practitioners, researchers and students interested in dance and performance practice. ... This book is a long-awaited careful assessment of one the most influential, prominent and progressive choreographers of contemporary dance today, and a rich and valuable contribution to dance and performance studies scholarship." (Antje Hildebrandt, Theatre Research International, Vol. 46 (1), 2021)

"Perazzo Domm's research skillfully familiarizes the reader with the range of ways in which Burrows's oeuvre plays at the edges of normativestructures. ... I find myself drawn to consider the potential of this manuscript to act as exemplar. ... this latest contribution to the field of dance studies, is a method of articulation that demonstrates empathy and deep listening with respect to both the artist and the work-a quality often absent in theoretical publications." (Gemma Collard-Stokes, Dance Chronicle, Vol. 43 (3), 2020)
