IPHIGENIA is one month away, so we thought it was time to introduce our characters. First up, @molevy is Iphigenia ❤️‍🔥

Sharp & Fine’s IPHIGENIA
📅 October 23-25
📍 @zspacesf, San Francisco
🎟️ $25-$45 (link in @sharpandfine bio)

Sharp & Fine blends dance, theater, and live music to cut open Euripides’s tragedy and imagine how the woman at the center of it might eventually find her own voice and ask: What’s the point of sacrifice?

Early in the pandemic @macks.b told me about a group of artists meeting online, one of them a dancer named Molly. “I get the feeling she’s a really good dancer,” he said. The way he said it, I knew she was way more than that.
—
Some months later @molevy walked onto the field where I was teaching, and I knew instantly this was the person Max described, and I instantly knew I wanted to work with her.
—
Lucky me, Molly agreed to learn my 1997 solo “99 Acres” for a fundraiser, then stayed on board for Paufve Dance’s 2024 “Sisters”.
—
Molly’s dancing is sublime, powerful in its subtlety. When she sends her legs into space, it’s not virtuosity on display—it’s a gesture, complete and expressive. There’s a collective sigh, like we’ve all just tasted something good for the first time. Molly’s bio describes her as a performer and teacher “drawn to the heart and humanity of dance making.” To her audiences and her students, she IS that heart and humanity.
—
Lucky New England—come see Molly grace this Vermont stage in our upcoming show of new and old works, alongside @frankly_spoken @lilysummergee @oliviaholston and me.

The Weight of Thread: A Jewish Ritual for Palestine
THIS Friday 4/17 & Saturday 4/18, 8pm at @dancemissiontheater
Info & tickets linked in bio

This still from rehearsal for The Weight of Thread feels like it captures it all. The momentum and whirl of creating this work which is swelling in our final week and the steadiness asked of each of us throughout the process. Feeling the tingling of tech week as we move closer to sharing this work on Friday! So many questions and much anticipation about what it will feel like to share and also so looking forward to this piece moving into its next stage of being opened up to a greater community. It’s all happening this weekend!

THIS Friday and Saturday! Friday is almost sold-out!

Molly Levy & Stephanie Sherman present
The Weight of Thread: A Jewish Ritual for Palestine

Friday and Saturday, April 17-18 at 8pm (ASL Interpretation Saturday)
At Dance Mission Theater

The Weight of Thread is a dance ritual rooted in Jewish mourning, supplication and resistance traditions, to reckon with grief, rupture, and solidarity in the shadow of genocide. Through dance, live music, poetry, and collective ritual, the work challenges Zionist definitions of Jewishness while affirming Judaism’s anti-genocidal, humanitarian values and expressing kinship with Palestinian liberation. Audiences are welcomed into an intimate, intergenerational community built through dance, music, food, and shared presence.

Choreography by: Molly Levy & Stephanie Sherman in collaboration with Anna Greenberg Gold.
Performed by: Anna Greenberg Gold, Molly Levy, and Stephanie Sherman with music by Rowan Katz & Hannah Levy.
