DANCE COMPANY
CONTEMPORARY EVENING
These sensual and musical pieces will carry the audience into a world filled with mother nature and ecstasy. Rich in musical nuances, this dance production will be a walk through a vast and varied emotional landscape, leading to a world of freedom.
The dancers will unleash their creative forces bringing to life the new works of Jiri Pokorny with his bizarre, pulsating and uncompromisingly physical piece The one AND lonely, while Roy Assaf will carry the audience into a sensitive and pure world with his new work called Birds Don’t Sing They Screech In Pain.

“The one AND lonely” is a new work that centres around themes of our social environment. A system that breaks down into little components, units or different entities in which we forget to see the connections between them.
We may be alone but we become lonely if we do not connect.
The “AND” is the point of overlap and it represents unity, a place where we may discover a whole new landscape of connections.
It brings us to a higher state of understanding between one another as the meaning of “AND is common to both.
​
“ You think because you understand ‘ONE’
You must also understand ‘TWO’
Because one and one make ‘TWO’
But you must also understand AND “

" One of life's most difficult challenges is not knowing, and I bow deeply to those who manage to sit with the unknown without losing their souls. Every time I enter the studio, I recall that our starting point is the unknown, and that my job is to practice holding it. As tools of this practice, I employ symbols - especially those that carry a historical charge. I like to scatter them in the space of creation and to see what happens, to test whether they are able to transform. “
