The Batsheva company was founded in 1964 by Baroness Batsheva de Rothschild, who chose renowned choreographer Martha Graham as the company’s first artistic consultant. It is Israel’s largest dance company, with 40 extraordinary dancers from Israel and around the world belonging to both the senior and junior Batsheva Ensemble companies. Batsheva stages about 250 performances each year with more than 100,000 spectators, and offers numerous educational activities for young dancers both in the dance school and through classes and workshops. It is unanimously recognized as one of the most prestigious dance companies in the world.
“MOMO revitalizes our sense of wonder, awe, enchantment and spontaneity. It washes away all the hierarchies ingrained in our minds. Looking at it, our senses cross wires, spatial and temporal orientation slips away, and expression is intense like no other.” (Anat Zecharia)
