It was wonderful to have a glimpse of the dances from the beginning of the 20th century. Dances by the pioneers of modern dance were recreated and danced by Elizabeth Fisher (USA). In contrast, Dorothea Rust (Switzerland) improvised and gave her view of dance today. Two Israeli dancers, Einya Cohen and YaelCnaani, created their own compositions with EWMN and performed them with their own groups.

Each evening, before the performances,Dana Hirsh (USA/Israel) improvised in front of the theater hall, making the site a part of her performance.
