		<description>That Fusion has charitable associations is no reason to give it a flowery review - who benefits from that?

The criticism in this article is entirely constructive; any student endeavour, whether it be Fusion, a Drama barn play or even this newspaper, should be ready to accept, with good grace, as much or as little praise or criticism as it deserves.

If, as some people clearly feel, Fusion has room for improvement, what harm is there in setting the bar a little higher?</description>

		<description>a little critical for the sake of being so. yes it may have been a mixed bag but this is not surprising considering the lack of experience many of the models and dancers have. not enough emphasis on the charity front, which must be more important than provoking comments on this website via over-critical analysis. but yes, refreshing to read something with confidence and genuine opinion.</description>

		<description>Great review. It was a mixed bag really, some bits were very good, other parts let it down. It didn't justify the hype.</description>

		<description>Ace review. It's nice that someone has the balls to critique properly.

I was disappointed with Fusion - though the dancing was of a high quality, the whole affair was unfortunately mediocre - the dynamism of last year's was lost; where were the props, spectacles, and innovations? It was to all intents and purposes a dance show - a good dance show - but still, not all it cracked up to be.

Also, I wouldn't say the article contained 'gross innacuracies' - mistakes, yes, but still.
And how is it bitter?! You, anon, are obv bitter that Fusion didn't get a five star review.</description>

		<description>Perhaps what you refer to as being bitchy is in fact a critique of the performance.</description>

		<description>learn to write an article in which you dont contradict yourself throughout. Check your facts, Dance Society not spanish society, mime was not performed by any society but by the fusion cast. You're clearly bitter and cannot accept the charity show for what it is, a fund raiser which allows people in York to branch into something that doesnt involve drama soc or writing for a bitchy paper.</description>

		<description>Thanks for your comments. 

Just to apologise about the aforementioned 'Spanish Soc' faux pas. It will be corrected in the version of the review that appears in the paper itself.</description>

		<description>Regardless of the writer's opinion, it is highly unprofessional to include gross inaccuracies in a published article.

As chair of Dance Society, i find it rather insulting that we are referred to as "Spanish Soc" just because we did a Flamenco style TAP piece, in which our dancers had our logo splashed all over their costumes..

I cant see how the writer can be seen to be perceptive when necessary details such as this our over-looked..for heaven's sake, a programme was only £1 with all proceeds to charity..!</description>

		<description>"Dross" is a bit unfair. It wasnt that bad! However, it wasn't as good a previous FUSION. It did lack the WOW factor from previous years.

Still impressive though - if not a bit - well vanillia</description>

		<description>Vastly more accurate review than the one found at the Yorker. 
The show wasn't a patch on last year!</description>

		<description>I agree (almost) wholeheartedly with your review. Though I wasn't so impressed by the choice of music, nor the rather haphazard mixing, I thought the choreography was top-notch. The major failing to my mind was the inattention paid to the assembly of the clearly separately conceived pieces. The music died mid-song was followed by silence (even from the crowd at times) and an empty, inactive stage. The pieces themselves didn't really make much sense, even when contextualised in their genres. Having said that, the Japanese and Spanish societies were fantastic and there were numerous individual efforts. It just needed more thought when it came to putting everything together.</description>

		<description>It sounds like a mix of styles and level of talents. Most of these people aren't exactly the world's best at what they do so it's a little harsh judging them as "terrible".

Anyway, I'm looking forward to tonight, regardless of your opinion!</description>
