Jerusalem Dance

Dance: Lovers of dance will have no problem finding what they want in Israel. The renowned Israel Ballet (Israel's national classical ballet company) performs mainly in its home town of Tel Aviv, with occasional productions in Jerusalem. Several professional modern dance companies, most based in Tel Aviv, perform throughout the country and abroad - best known are Inbal Dance Theater and Batsheva Dance Company, both based at the Suzanne Dellal Centre in Tel Aviv (website: www.suzannedellal.org.il). In Jerusalem, Mechola, 43 Emek Refaim (tel: (02) 563 6663; website: www.geocities.com/Broadway/Stage/8973), is a municipal dance centre housing jazz and folk dance companies and workshops for children and adults.
