God willing
"Breathe!" I tell him, "Breathe bro, it's all a wedding." And it's all loneliness. And it's all a stormy dance of fear, attrition and maybe never. Or worse - forever.
All in all, max divorce, max alone. The whole max.

Heroes
Ensemble now brings to the stage questions of identity about the human, Israeli, Jewish, male body.
The body has undergone tremendous changes in the last hundred years. Is the male Jewish body adorned with its teachings or perhaps already with its muscles and uniforms?
Ensemble now offers a third option, the fusion that creates Israeli complexity.

Hadap
We are between heaven and earth, between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, between an ancient Hasidic world and a world of contemporary culture. We enjoy being a medium between the edges and also thank for having the edges as they are. Applaud with right hand and left hand.

Dirt
In the work "Of", Ronen Yitzhaki, in force and trembling, dares to enter the world of "White Death" (1981) - one of Ruth Ziv Eyal's first works, a work that is the genetic code for Ruth's work over the years and a summary of her unique movement language. Together with his brave partners on the road - Ensemble Now, a contemporary dance group of religious men that operates within the framework of "Between Heaven and Earth", Ronen tries to connect times and places and create new combinations.
The show was created as part of the "Following" project initiated by Mifal Hapayis.

Marsh beggars
From the world of the beggars a simple hand is sent, invading into our being. Our solid existence is shaking. Beyond the decent border and following the beggars of R. Nachman of Breslav

Route 1
Between secular and sacred, between the secular ecstasy of a dance club, and the religious one, as expressed in the body of the worshiper, in awe, strength and trembling.

And
And to the House
Six men moving around a table. Sometimes as drunken peasants around the dining table, and sometimes as followers around the table of the beit midrash - below and above the table, in ancient and contemporary realities. Meeting in the movement.

בלי נדר
"תנשום!" אני אומר לו: "תנשום אחי, זה כולה חתונה." וזה כולה בדידות. וזה כולה מחול סוער של פחד, התשה ואולי לעולם לא. או יותר גרוע – לנצח.
כולה, מקסימום תתגרשו, מקסימום לבד. כולה מקסימום.
