Mojca received great critics for the role of Madame Chauchat in the dance performance Magic Mountain inspired by Thomas Mann’s novel in choreography by Aleksandar Ilić and directed by Aleksandar Nikolić.

From the critics: “The dancers from Slovenia, Mojca Majcen, impressed us with the role of the young lady, Madame Chauchat who is aware of her quick end.”  (David Naum, 03/03/2019)

All five dancers have with a good measure of personal presence danced in all three choreographies, but Mojca Majcen with her presence, and solo parts visibly entered the dance foreground. (Daliborka Podboj – Parada Plesa for the performance Balkan Dance Vol 3, October 2017)

Mojca Majcen is a beautiful dancer and excels during her solo that expresses the torment Karlin experienced while interned in San Francisco. (Jeff Slayton for See Dance News Los Angeles for the performance Alma.Alone, April 2017).

Mojca Majcen forms a wide range of dance styles and Alma’s inner conditions and in her solo in a black costume she performs a unique dance expression, which is completed with poetics of expressive depths and superb dance vocabulary.

Majcen’s the kind of dancer you can’t stop watching: Her exquisite technique is matched by a spellbinding presence.

Di tutt’altra natura femminile la bionda coda di capelli slovena Mojca Majcen: un po’ mantide un po’ trapezista da circo, tra attrezzature da palestra e cappelli da mago, la bravissima Mojca Majcen si dimena instancabile per l’ossessivo arrangiamento balcanico del Bolero.« (FABIANA CAMPANNELA-DRAMMATURGIA ITALIA, review from the performance The Lady of the Camellias- La Bienalle di Danza Venezija)
