To bridge the 7,000 mile gap between Israel and Los Angeles, the Center for Intercultural Performance invited four of the most innovative names in Israeli contemporary dance to come teach at UCLA.

Since the beginning of their two-week residency at UCLA on April 21, choreographers Idan Cohen, Niv Sheinfeld and Ronit Ziv from Tel Aviv have been joined by Barak Marshall from Los Angeles to familiarize World Arts and Cultures students with their contemporary moves.

On Sunday, May 4th, at 2 p.m. in the Glorya Kaufman Dance Theater the public will have a chance to see students perform their work in “Bridges: Choreographic Dialogues Live from Israel.”
