The Kibbutz Contemporary Dance Company (KCDC) is an Israeli dance company established in 1970 by the Israel Prize laureate Yehudit Arnon, who served as its artistic director and CEO until 1996. In 1980, the choreographer Rami Be'er joined the company and since 1996 has been serving as the artistic director. The company's studio is located in the international dance village, in Kibbutz Ga'aton in the western Galilee. The village serves as an institution for movement dance and contemporary dance for all ages, and includes an events center and rehearsal halls. == History == The company was originally named the Inter-Collective Dance Company. At the time, all of the group’s performers were members of the kibbutzim. Due to budgetary constraints and the company’s commitment to creative independence, all of its productions were based on the choreography of Israeli artists. The group’s performances were originally considered amateurish, both for their low production quality and the company’s dependence on local artists. During the group’s early years, the company’s performers included Yehudit Arnon, Ofra Achmann, Hada Oren, and Oshra Elkaym-Ronen. Arnon and Achmann frequently performed ''ausdruckstanz'', a form of expressive dance that remained popular in Israel until the mid-1950s. In 1994, a second company joined the KCDC, called Kibbutzit 2, which mostly performs for young audiences, with performances such as "Peter and the Wolf", "The Animal Carnival", "K-butzit 360", and "Sipurei Kodemkol". Some of the company's choreographers, including Shai Pertush, Itai Peri, and Lotam Regev, participated in the Israeli TV show Nolad Lirkod (Born to Dance). Choreographers Liat Dror and Nir Ben Gal, who married shortly after their Israeli military service, began their careers in the company. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kibbutz Contemporary Dance Company」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
