Established in Israel in 2000 by partners Lee Sher and Saar Harari, LeeSaar The Company uses various disciplines of dance and theater to create vivid and dynamic contemporary dance works. They have developed a movement language inspired by their Gaga roots and created a gutsy dance troupe of extraordinary technicians and movement inventors. Their highly anticipated ADF debut features an ADF commissioned world premiere entitled grass and jackals, a powerful and climactic dance piece and light spectacle that investigates the connections between feelings and bodies in an unknown terrain. The work draws on the strength and power of womanhood while using state-of-the-art lighting to create an unpredictable performance that pushes the physical and emotional boundaries of not only the performers but the viewers as well.
