Originally created in 2013 for NDT 2, SARA was restaged for Gibney Company in 2022 with the support of MART. The work premiered in March 2023 at the Suzanne Dellal Centre in Tel Aviv within Company’s first tour in Israel, presented by MART
SARA is like a pearl in a treasure, a box of jewels that smells ancient with the feeling of a new. The box cannot be opened all the way, its charm will fade. White pearl, transparent, leaking colors but always remains a pearl. SARA is minimalist, gentle, emotional and sensitive, hardcore, and old fashioned at the same time. There’s a sense of restraint and taking advantage of the minimum and the maximum. She is not allowing distance and is getting closer to the heart. She comes from there and leaves into the world as a cloud crumbles into the dust of love.
World Premiere (Suzanne Dellal Centre): March 1 and 2, Tel Aviv
