Between bursts of euphoria and moments of vulnerability, the work investigates the meaning of stumbling, both physically and emotionally, within a friendship. An ironic game celebrating time, movement, and the absurdity of life.
Dancers and choreographers Billy Barry and Gianni Notarnicola have collaborated with the renowned Batsheva Dance Company founded by Martha Graham and Baroness Batsheva de Rothschild in 1964. Together they created the duets B.O.A.T.S and G.O.A.T.S, premiered at the Tel Aviv Dance Festival in 2022 and 2023.
