“If you are familiar with his mesmerizing work, nothing more need be said ... if you’re not, this feast of dance illustrates why others are.” - LA Times
Mr. Gaga (Director: Tomer Heymann) tells the story of Ohad Naharin, renowned choreographer and artistic director of Israel's famed Batsheva Dance Company, an artistic genius who redefines the language of modern dance even as he probes the artistic conscience in relation to the fraught politics of the region.
NOTE: The Yard's David R White was a producer of Ohad Naharin's work in New York City prior to his departure for Batsheva in 1990..
