The Kibbutz Contemporary Dance Company – The BEST dance company in Israel
Its about time I dedicated a post to my favorite dance company in Israel, and without a doubt the best Contemporary dance company that Israel has to offer the world. If an Israeli names another dance company from Israel as the most famous or appreciated company, then your are talking to someone who isn’t really into dance and has very little knowledge of it. The main problem today with the KCDC is that it is so successful around the world, that there aren’t many shows in Israel and they preform mainly outside the country.
The KCDC is a very unique dance company, it’s home is at Kibbutz Ge’aton in the north of Israel and all dancers in the company live on the Kibbutz. The dancers come from all over the world, but the choreography is 100% Israeli – all by the artistic manager of the company – Rami Be’er. Take a look at this video about the KCDC and get to know the special environment in which this dance company lives and create – it is called “The Galilee dance village”.

If you enjoy contemporary dance you cannot afford to miss the KCDC, an utter pleasure is guaranteed at any of their shows. All you have to do is enter the KCDC web site and check out when they preform in your country. In recent years I’ve made it a rule of mine to watch all their shows and I can assure you that you wont be disappointed. The company has brilliant dancers and a visionary choreographer who demonstrates an impossible imagination well above and beyond any thing you may look for, or expect.
If you are in Israel these days you have a triple chance to enjoy one of their shows:
Ekodoom – Suzann Dellal Center for Dance and Theater, Friday Oct. 10th at 10pm and Saturday Oct. 11th at 9pm. Tickets at 03-5105656
Kef-Kafim – Suzann Dellal Center for Dance and Theater, Friday Oct. 17th at 10pm. Tickets: 03-5105656
60 HZ – Herzliya Stage Arts Center, Friday Oct. 24th at 10pm. Tickets: 09-9729999
60 HZ is their latest show, I was at the premier in July and its magnificent!!! My general tip is to try and watch the KCDC shows on big stages, since their work is usually grandiose and takes up most of the stage. Suzann Dellal is a great theater but maybe a little too small for Ekodoom. For the very fun Kef-Kafim it will be excellent.
Enjoy a parallel universe of imagination by the KCDC
