“With the first martial drumbeats, the members of Samba Fogo showed themselves to be a powerful force combining ritualistic dance and dynamic energy for a spectacular display of Brazilian culture”
-Salt Lake City Weekly
“Unlike other dance performances, Samba Fogo is not just a spectator sport. The audience was urged to clap along, shout when it suited, and even get up and dance at times. Needless to say, the energy was contagious.”
-Salt Lake Magazine
“Samba Fogo indeed provided a perfect artistic barometer of coming out of the pandemic, stronger, better, and more enriched than ever in its cultural mission and artistic expression.”
-The Utah Review
