Vertigo Dance Company: MAKOM

Standout Jerusalem-based contemporary dance company Vertigo returns to Boston with Artistic Director Noa Wertheim’s newest work MAKOM. The work, whose title derives from the Hebrew for “place,” is described as “a perpetual search of a return to the place that brings us closer to ourselves.” The evening-length piece – with its tension between the center and the extremities, between form and content, between inside and outside, and between construction and destruction – beautifully dramatizes the striving for unity and wholeness that speaks profoundly to the human condition.
