- Best of 2008 Dance: River North Chicago Dance Company, February, the Harris. Robert Battle's steamrolling "Train" and a revival of Harrison McEldowney's bemusing but existential "The Box" were highlights to cherish.
- Sid Smith, Chicago Tribune
- "When the music starts, the heart responds." That's the motto of the River North Chicago Dance Company these days. And in its two sensational concerts at the Harris Theater for Music and Dance this weekend -- featuring a program jam-packed with audacious new choreography and bravura dancing -- the troupe more than lived up to its guiding principle. In fact, River North demonstrated that it is now right up there in the very top ranks of this city's dance elite...the Chicago premiere of "Habaneras, the Music of Cuba"...left the audience in a state of high exaltation, and is bound to become River North's signature piece."
- Chicago Sun-Times Hedy Weiss
- One of the best dance companies. The audience loved them. Clearly they are destined to enter the Wharton Center stable of companies. We wish to commission new work. On a scale of 1 to 10, this one gets an 11!
- William Wright, Executive Director, Wharton Center for Performing Arts
