"[…] Sidereal sounds guide the movement of Nicola Galli, who creates a body language capable to displace the audience
during the five different simulations of landing on Mars: visions similar to alien fetuses, movements at the limit
of gravity, choreographies that remind the movement of insects and the dance which is possible only in a water
environment create the imaginary of Mars, evocked through the body of the performer. "
Camilla Fava [ "Kilowatt Festival - Su un altro pianeta" - www.stratagemmi.it ]
"Each caption introduces a 'simulation', that is an attempt at adaptation that Galli -
with a costume that refers to the iconography of science fiction in the seventies and eighties
- convert in abstract and elastic choreographies that, nevertheless, betray a feeling of anguished disorientation.
Technical mastery combined with curious and clear sensibility."
Laura Bevione [ Hystrio Magazine ]
"[...] It’s extremely curious and appealing that the choreographic work of a young dancer is inspired
by the red planet, obtaining – with a wonderful fusion of languages, from dance to the light design,
from a significant use of sounds and noises to the theatre of shadows, up to the pseudo-documentary
video – a pleasant performance for eyes and senses, that is able to involve the audience in a journey to the atmosphere of Mars.
In addition to using cleverly various expressive languages combined in a coherent artistic discourse, Nicola Galli
shows his potential as a dancer and embodies the roughness of a wild and primordial nature, sidereal yet apparently
heated (how we imagine the red planet).
Many references to the cinematographic universe are present in the creation,
and even more the original ideas of Galli, who proves to be a sensitive and intelligent dancer, able to evoke and interpret,
with a touch of self-irony."

"[…] A smart and elegant staging, capable to intrigue."
