Yael Karavan comes to EVC to work on her new dance-theater piece, which focuses on the extinction of species, an important aspect of ecology and climate emergency. To do so, she is joined by artist Naomi Silman, from the acclaimed Brazilian company Lume Teatro.

Homenagem is a theater-dance piece that addresses the problem of species extinction (flora and fauna), which has silent but harsh repercussions on the life on Earth. Emerging on the thin line between tragic and comic, it will reveal contradictions of human behavior in its interaction with the planet. The investigation, although exhaustive, will be endless, seeking to raise awareness of the existence of species that must also have a place here.
