About Time continues Idan Cohen ’s journey through Philip Glass’ solo piano etudes, performed live by award-winning pianist Leslie Dala , featuring dancers Will Jessup and Benjamin DeFaria . Glass’ music captures an abstraction sense of time, telling a story without words through his minimalistic, crystalline rhythms— timeless yet strikingly relevant. About Time poses poignant questions: How do we confront time? Can we stop it? Rush ahead? Or is it ever possible to reverse it? Chutzpah! Festival programming of Israeli artists is supported by the Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver and the Ronald S Roadburg Foundation. The dance program is dedicated to Lisa Nemetz through the generosity of the Snider Foundation and this show is sponsored by Emet Davis. Note: For our friends who observe Shabbat, we recommend attending the November 9 performance of About Time & Fortress and the November 10 performance of Cabaret Yitish .
