Discovering for the power of improvisation, Now is a creation in the moment. This live collaboration between the performing artists is a structure that unfolds differently each performance. Un-choreographing the body to find new relationships to time and space and searching for new moments that question reality. Creating opportunities where music is a source for the challenge, conflict and resolution, while acknowledging the endlessness of possibilities in the ‘now’.

For several years I have been exploring the concept of “Home” in my choreographic work.
I interviewed people about it, asking what home meant to them and whether they felt at home at that moment. All interviews interpreted home as different things, such as origin, identity, society, body and more. It became clear to me that people perceived themselves as the reflection of their homes; their language, family, occupation, possession, injuries, love, etc. Eventually, when starting my creation process, I interviewed my dancer as well. I felt the need to create a new home for both of us. I found it within the music and the movement. Originally, I titled the work “Ours”, referring to it as our opportunity to find home together, while sharing with the audience. later, I have come to learn that it no longer mattered to me whose home is was. I decided to add one letter to the title and to dedicate this experience to the spectator. It is ‘yours’.
Ella
Concept & Choreography Idan Sharabi
Discovering the power of listening, the piece “Ella” is a structure that aims to be unfolded and performed slightly differently each night. It was originally created in Holland in the spring and this fall, it was recreated with the New Dialect dancers. In the process, we focused our research on sound and its movement. The dancers were introduced to different improvisation technologies through which sound could become a traveling entity within their bodies. As the process evolved, listening to their bodies became crucial and gradually, moving had become a channel. Performing Ella, means taking a chance to dance through this channel, while listening to the “now” inside the concrete matter of the body and the choreographed matter in the mind. We are here, at this moment, sharing it with you.

I was born in Israel, in 1984. When I became 17 I started traveling and for almost half of my life time, I’ve lived out of home. As a result, my conception of places has been shifting a lot. In 2014, I created the work ‘Yours’ (former ‘Ours’) by finding the intimacy in a creative process of only two persons in the studio. I interviewed my dancer about his perception of ‘home’ and as a result, a duet was born. In 2015, I extended my ‘home’ research and brought in more dancers. I interviewed them as well. These inspiring interviews lead me to create the piece Interviews / Makom (Hebrew for ‘A place’), which became an autobiographical impression of the people performing it. These choreographic pieces are all some kind of riddles for me. Nevertheless, now I know more about my own aspiration. I long to see others more. To love.

Noa
Choreography | Idan Sharabi
Performance | Noa Mamrud
Videography | Juan Diosado
Noa solo is a part of ‘Joni Solos Series’ A project that honors the beautiful artist, singer and songwriter, Joni Mitchell. While creating the solos we developed our understanding of sound, its volume and its traveling. After breaking down these elements, we started drawing forms in space, relating only to Mitchell’s sound and its vibration, before falling into her effective choice of words. Every showing is another opportunity for us to share our challenge of finding this truth that lays within the music.
Mi-mano
This piece defines different systems, to which the dancers are constantly relating, by playing with them, or even breaking them. And so, the people dancing and their personalities, define this game. Playful, Silly, Witty, Fearful, Loving; Their spontaneous decisions are the creation itself.

Thirteen years ago, I left my home in Israel to live abroad. Since I returned to Israel five years ago, I still find myself on airplanes,suitcases packed, and on the go, which makes the fragility of my home more and more apparent to me. Last year, I began interviewing people from different countries, asking them: What is home for you? Where are you from? Where do you live & Do you feel at home now?. It became clear to me that people perceived themselves as the reflection of their homes; their language, family, occupation, possession, injuries, love, etc.
These interviews were very inspiring for me and led me to create several works over the course of a year. We Men is one of them.
Our society publicly reflects the discrete experience of the individual. We Men was created as a personal gesture to our never ending collective search for our ‘gender home’. In this creation, three men – are simply people. Two of them are also my friends and work partners. As we work together we have come to agree that music is our common home. This evening is an opportunity for us to experience music together and through it expose and share with the audience our search for these identities.
We’d like to sincerely thank Zipi Dudovich & ‘Piruet’ Rehovot, Tami Weiss, Yoram Karmi and Banning & Kevin Bouldin.
- We Men will be performed again in September 2014:
- In Warehouse 2 Theater, Jaffa Port, Tel-aviv-Yaffo on 18.9.14
- In The Series of Beit Mazya Theater, in Jerusalem on 30.9.14
