"They masterfully use movement where words would fail."
- Intermission Magazine (2022) "In terms of Aria Evans’s intimacy choreography and movement direction ... Those moments of choreography were wow moments, and the intimacy felt very maturely handled." - Intermission Magazine (2022) "... created by humanity, for humanity." - Mooney On Theatre (2019) "... emanating an absolute sense of identity and self-empowerment." - The Dance Current (2018) "Evans is an emerging interdisciplinary artist focusing on important and relevant cultural issues. If this is the work she is producing at the beginning of her artistic journey then it will be exciting to witness what Evans will produce throughout the rest of her career." - Mooney On Theatre (2016) "... powerful message and flawless execution ..." - Mooney On Theatre (2015) |

POLITICAL MOVEMENT honours and acknowledges the ancestral caretakers of Tkarón:to (which translates to “Where The Trees Meet The Water” and is known as “The Gathering Place”) where the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Haundenosaunee Confederacy and the Wendat First Nation have a Treaty relationship with Canada. We share our gratitude to them and all other Nations who care for the land (acknowledged and unacknowledged, recorded and unrecorded) as the past, present and future caretakers. As Afro-Indigenous and settler leadership, we commit to being a caretaker of the now and future.
