“…contagiously playful choreographies by Daan Wijnands…” (NRC – Elisabeth Oosterling)

“…partly thanks to a nice choreography by Daan Wijnands…” (Metro – Erik Jonk)

“It also becomes clear that the star of this performance is not on stage: Daan Wijnands. He is a man of prestige in his profession and confirms his reputation with dazzling dynamics and spectacular, off-the-rails explosions in the dance numbers.” (Dagblad van het Noorden – Jacques D’Ancona)

“This production features a refreshing new choreography by Daan Wijnands !
Choreographer Daan Wijnands (with assistant Eline Vroon) has outdone himself and created a brand new world of Grease. All choreo is new, which is a breath of fresh air to not having to watch the same old dance routines again. It’s a wonderful tribute to the enormous legacy of the show, yet in a brand new (leather) jacket.” (Broadwayworld – Chantal Kunst)
