"

'And at Midnight, the Green Bride Floated Through the Village Square ...' by the Israeli choreographer Barak Marshall, found dark comedy in the traditional plight of women in marriage...a tiny thick-accented Jewish grandmother of immense charm, dispensed fantastical and funny folk wisdom. This ululating woman was Mr. Marshall’s mother, the venerable choreographer and performer Margalit Oved."

First introduced to the culturally critical dances of Israeli choreographer Barak Marshall two summers ago at Jacob’s Pillow, I have been mesmerized by his gutsy approach ever since...The incredible success of this work lies in the multidimensional approach to the underlying story. It is not entirely dependent on the dancing. But when Marshall does use movement, his phrases contain allusion, restraint and power like a pressure cooker.

"

Marshall has masterfully crafted a theatrical piece, full of dark humor, that startles with jarring juxtapositions while remaining accessible and entirely appealing."
