Passomezzo by Ohad Naharin, artistic director of the Batsheva Dance Company
Set to the Baroque melodies of Greensleeves and The Beggar's Opera, Passomezzo is a highly theatrical pas de deux depicting the intimate dialogue between a man and a woman. Ohad describes Passomezzo as a duet about tough love and opposition that explores the tempestuous shifts of balance in a relationship. The commissioning of Passomezzo was made possible through a generous grant award from The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage through Dance Advance.

Sense of Human by Ronen (Roni) Koresh
Sense of Human depicts life in its purest, rawest, most guttural state. We walk through life wearing carefully chosen facades that disguise, redirect, and hide the basic yearnings by which we exist. What are we hiding? Are we really concealing anything? Can others see right through us? Can others know us better than we know ourselves? This work delves beneath our desired self images to discover our true sense of humanity. In collaboration with Roni, Greg Smith has created an original score for Sense of Human.

Braving the New World
The world premiere of this contemporary dance piece evokes the clash of conformity and human individuality, inspired by literary classics like Brave New World, 1984, and Fahrenheit 451. Based on the imagined worlds of authors like Aldous Huxley and George Orwell, the Rebecca Davis Dance Company explores these issues of societal control vs. individual freedom. This professional ensemble is choreographed by Rebecca Davis using her innovative style of dance, drama, and narrative.
