Zvi Gotheiner’s MIGRATIONS begins with bodies writhing and twisting and undulating in preparation for their flight. They move into a syncopated dance formation that is quickly disregarded as each dancer breaks off to display their individual talents. Movement is broad, precise, graceful, and descriptive as the dancers breathe life into the message.

Migration, whether by birds or humans, is a journey in search of a better condition. This work celebrates the anticipation, the triumphs, and the joys, as well as the confusion, the fear, the danger, and the pain. MIGRATIONS connects humans with nature by the universal need for survival and the desire for improvement. This is a beautiful way to remind us all that we are part of a larger community.
