SUMMARY:Two Worlds: Deaf and Hearing Dance Duo
DESCRIPTION:Don’t miss this special opportunity to witness “Two Worlds\,” which uniquely blends the world of a deaf dancer with that of a hearing dancer. This remarkable collaboration\, created by Israeli artists Jill Damti Feingold (hearing) & Amnon Damti (deaf)\, introduces audiences to a new world of silence\, dance\, pantomime\, and sign language. \nThe exhilarating performance is packed with chemistry and charisma.  Beyond the artistic experience\, the dance\, followed by Q & A\, conveys a very significant message—that everything is possible. \n“Two Worlds” has been performed globally for many years. They were named by the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs: “Ambassadors of Culture and Acceptance”.
