“AU BORD DU PRECIPICE - Ailey, Paris Opera Ballet: ...it was a brilliant, highly polished spectacle — it would not have been out of place in a Roland Petit season — strongly aided by the expressionist backdrops and colorful costumes of Carol Vollet-Garner [Kingston] and splendidly effective lighting of Chenault Spence.”

“UNKNOWN TERRITORY - Goh: As Jacobson’s music prepares the atmosphere with a tense electronic drizzle, the curtain rises slowly to reveal Carol Vollet-Garner’s [Kingston’s] striking set and costumes. The backdrop is a dark, stylized sky, with slender, leaved branches curling into an immense golden sun. Against this, the dancers are frozen into a tableau — the men, in halters and briefs, on one side, the women, in streaked unitards, on the other, the predominant colors red and black. Upstage center, two handmaidens flank Janet Shibata as the bride. Caught in the varnished gleam of Beth Newbold’s canny lighting, the whole picture looks like a lacquered Chinese painting come to life and murmurs of appreciation swept through the audience at the sight.”
