Show last night
Jun. 24th, 2009 08:34 amI went to see "What is it to you, angel" (מה לך מלאך) with Netalie at Suzanne Dalal. It was incredible.
The first part was mainly Rina Shinfeld and a co dancer in a duet (I'll point out that Rina Shinfeld is 71 years old and her co dancer was a guy in his twenties and the dance was semi mother/son and semi lovers. Made me think of D.H. Lawrence). It was beautiful - there were poles they hung from and a lot of playing with Rina's hair as a prop (lovely artistic). There were some six or seven female dancers and they joined and interwove into the duet at some point, and there were times two girls held on to a cloth and the projected pictures from (I imagine) Rina's childhood. The end had the dancers and music saying that "Heaven is like the place we are now, only much, much better". The energized ending to the dance was beautiful, and then they had some red props (they were dressed in grey), and after the first round of applause the dancers swept to the audience and pulled a few people from the crowd to dance with them on the stage. Mesmerizing and intoxicating.
We left with huge grins on our faces, and since this was my birthday gift from Netalie I'll say once more - Thank you!!! :)
