Special Invitation – Israeli Dance Showcase in Berlin | May 20–23, 2025
We are pleased to invite you to the Israeli Dance Showcase in Berlin, taking place from May 20–23, 2025, at DOCK 11 Theater. This exclusive event is part of the ongoing collaboration between MASH Dance House (Jerusalem) and DOCKART (Berlin) and serves as a platform to present outstanding independent Israeli dance productions to the local audiences.
This year, we are expanding the event to be a Mini Showcase featuring selected works that were originally scheduled for Jerusalem International Dance Week (JIDW) but were canceled due to the war. The showcase provides a unique opportunity to reconnect with these productions and experience them live. Additionally, we see this event as an important moment to engage with European audiences and support Israeli artists by offering them a stage abroad and exposure for leaders from the International dance scene.
This event offers an exclusive preview of Jerusalem International Dance Week (JIDW), a prestigious platform taking place this year from December 7–11 in Jerusalem. JIDW brings together renowned international presenters who have the opportunity to experience cutting-edge independent dance productions, engage with exceptional artists, and explore the diverse artistic initiatives spearheaded by MASH Dance House.
