"The ambitious staging, exploring centuries of African history and colonisation, had a breathtaking score and lush vocals."

"Despite the harshness of the subject matter, there is a rare beauty and the show is is teeming with aesthetic and musical discoveries."

"Something too rare not to be mentioned: at the applause, once the abundant sequence of vast images that make up Le Vol du Boli was coming to an end, the Châtelet audience rose to their feet as one block. Standing and dancing, they expressed a jubilation that is rarely observed in the theater."
