SUMMARY:ZviDance
DESCRIPTION:Led by Israeli-born Artistic Director Zvi Gotheiner, ZviDa
 nce will premiere DABKE, a contemporary dance inspired by this ancient
  Middle-Eastern folk dance, and COUPLING.  ZviDance's home season wil
 l be presented from May 31 - June 3, 2012 at the New York Live Arts Th
 eater, 219 W. 19th Street, New York, NY 10011.  Performances:  Thurs
 day – Saturday at 7:30pm, Saturday & Sunday at 2pm.  Tickets: $25 (
 $18 for Live Arts Members & Associate Artists, students, and seniors),
  available at http://newyorklivearts.org/event/DABKE or by phone at (2
 12) 924-0077.\n \nArabic for “stomping the ground,” Dabke is the 
 national dance of Lebanon, Jordan, Syria and Palestine; Israelis have 
 their own version. Mr. Gotheiner’s DABKE uses the power of dance to 
 highlight tribal and national identities as well as dissolve those def
 initions. Reflecting on the recent “Arab Spring” movement that ign
 ited the Middle-East with unstoppable forces for change, Gotheiner asp
 ires to celebrate this trend, and by creating DABKE, acknowledges its 
 ripple effect on all of us.  Composition and live music by Scott Kill
 ian, and lighting design by Mark London.\n \nThe evening will also in
 clude the World Premiere of Coupling, an exploration in the art of par
 tnering and the way two bodies coexist in space and time. This suite 
 of 11 duets ponders what makes two people gravitate towards each oth
 er.\n \n“One does not just watch a dance by Zvi Gotheiner.  One en
 ters a world with its own internal logic, a sensual, organic world of 
 movement, language, and images where one is pulled along by currents u
 nseen and inevitable.” – Dance Magazine\n\nFor more information vi
