Israeli choreographers Saar Harari and Lee Sher craft a compelling coda to the critically heralded Herd of Bulls, in which explosive military movement was co-opted to inform one soldier’s journey through the emotional aftermath of violence.

Here, the company’s physical vocabulary implodes, occupying a mental territory torn by the duality of living a life of freedom in a place where others cannot. Underscored by the live accompaniment of world music composer Brian Prunka on the oud (a traditional Arabic instrument), writhing, undulating bodies unite and collide, ricocheting between manifestations of sensual pleasure, joy and tenderness to anger, fear, and madness – engaging the audience in a riveting exploration of humanity and the right to dream.
