The Kibbutz Dance Company has returned to Australia after 23 years to perform its latest work, Horses in the Sky, until September 3 at the Sydney Opera House.
Veteran KDC artistic director and choreographer Rami Be’er describes the piece as “bringing together dreams and a sense of impending apocalypse.” It is set to a soundtrack including Björk and Elvis Presley.
During their stay, the KDC will also be holding master classes for local dancers as well as a special workshop entitled “Dancing for Parkinson’s.”
This internationally acclaimed dance class invites participants to attend a class and work on their coordination, balance and stamina – physical abilities often affected by the disease.
