LeeSaar the Company — a partnership between actress/writer Lee Sher and dancer/choreographer Saar Harari — brings a split bill of dance and theatre to La MaMa. Founded in the directors' native Israel but based in New York since 2004, the work is clearly influenced by Batsheva Dance Company and Ohad Naharin's Gaga approach to movement. At La MaMa, LeeSaar the Company presents two separate works that are rich with meaning. Sher's short, one-woman play, Little Island, portrays a lonely woman in a New York apartment, while the arresting One Day oscillates between narrative and abstraction in an intense duet performed by the mesmerizing Jye-Hwei Lin and Hsin-Yi Hsiang.
