ODLOMKI IZ KRITIK:
»Poleg izvrstne koreografije, ki vključuje mnogo zanimivih gibalnih detajlov, ki so tudi njun avtorski podpis, predstavo odlikuje premišljena dinamika dolgih intenzivnih sekvenc, ki se mehko iztekajo v umiritev, in njuna naravnost osupljiva plesna izvedba.« (Mojca Kumerdej, Delo)
»Izjemno polna, živa, sočna ter globoko emotivna predstava, ki se zasidra v gledalčevo notranjost.« (Ana Rozman, Radio Slovenija)
“ Doživeli smo ples življenja, ko sodobni ples v plesni simfoniji Štirinajst Gregorja in Rosane pesni življenje, in gledali smo čudovito odo plesni umetnosti, predstavo o življenju, o intimni in profesionalni povezavi para, ki že praktično štirinajst let daje slovenski plesni sceni svojevrsten umetniški pečat in na vidnih mednarodnih prizoriščih osvaja najvišje nagrade, menim pa, da z uprizoritvijo Štirinajst posega v sam vrh svetovne plesne elite. “ (Daliborka Podboj, Parada plesa)
Sodobna plesna simfonija
“Umetniški nivo slovenske plesne sodobnosti je v samem svetovnem vrhu umetniškega razodevanja, tudi po vsem tem, kar smo lahko videli prve dni festivala in v pretekli plesno-gledališki sezoni ob gostovanjih na ljubljanskih in mariborskih odrih. Ob bok vsem stvaritvam koreografskih velikanov je mogoče umestiti tudi festivalski dogodek 7. Front@ na odru Gledališča Park 25. avgusta - sodobno plesno predstavo Rosane Hribar & Gregorja Luštka, Štirinajst, ki je bila premierno predstavljena 22. marca na odru Plesnega Teatra/ PTL v Ljubljani.” (Daliborka Podboj, Večer)

EXCERPTS FROM PRESS REVIEWS/ CRITICS:
»Next to excellent choreography which comprises many interesting movement details of their personal signature, the performance is distinguished for its thoughtful dynamics of long intensive sequences softly flowing into calmness, and their directly astonishing dance performance.« (Mojca Kumerdej, Delo newspaper)
Amazingly whole, vivid, juicy and deeply emotive performance which anchors into spectator's inwardness. (Ana Rozman, Radio Slovenia)
"Just like this song is addictive with its melody, so it is impossible to detach the eyes off the dancers." (Simona Jerala, Radio Student)
»We experienced the dance of life, where contemporary dance in the dance symphony Fourteen (Štirinajst) by Gregor and Rosana rhymes life, and we watched a marvellous ode to dance art, a performance about life, about intimate and professional connection of a couple who has been practically for forteen years giving Slovenian dance scene an original artistic stamp, and has gained highest awards at prominent international venues - and I think that with the staging of Fourteen (Štirinajst) it reaches the top of the world dance elite."
