The title, Delay the Sadness, has a special significance. It evokes a contemplation of the delicate balance of emotions and how we move through them. The work is also named in memory of Sharon Eyal?s mother, who died earlier this year.
Although the work is not autobiographical, its spirit and force have inspired many elements of the choreography. The choreographic process of Delay the Sadness is one of deep immersion.
Each rehearsal is an exploration, a space where Sharon Eyal and her partner Gai Behar, as well as the dancers, plunge into the themes and emotions underlying the piece. Movement is not simply a sequence of steps, but a vector of emotions. Sharon seeks to see expression beyond choreography.
