Raising the Sparks 2024

Poet Kit West, musician Yaakov Finer, and The Heartbeat Ballet, directed by Ixchel Levendosky, joined forces to immerse the audience in a potent and evocative evening. Raising the Sparks is a collaboration of words and movement that expresses the delicate moment when the observer and the observed become one, the moment when the self fades into the beauty it sees, or the suffering it witnesses, a unique alchemy that just might be the true way to do good in the world. 

“Each man has a sphere of being in space and time which is allotted to him to be redeemed through him. Places which are heavy with unraised sparks and in which souls are fettered wait for the man who will come to them with the word of freedom.” Martin Buber.

7 Words for Love

Undefinable Nuances 2022

Undefinable Nuances drew its audience into a labyrinth of emotional undercurrents universal to the human experience, yet difficult to speak of. This evening of eclectic original works performed and choreographed by Heartbeat Ballet dancers explored those nagging sensations we struggle to define, inviting us into the deeper realms of ourselves and those we love. Those moments that pull us off center, that tug at us with a yearning to tell our loved ones, but we don’t know how; the urgencies that swirl around our inner lives for which we have no words.
