Roadshow

This year's roadshow took place on the occasion of the Up & Coming Choreographers presentation.

Nederlands Dans Theater stimulates the development of young creators for which they partner with the Korzo Theater.

For this edition, talented makers Juliano Nunes, Ihsan Rustem and Dimo Milev got a chance to create new works with the dancers of NDT 2.

In a short time span of few weeks, the choreographers were challenged to work on a ballet entirely according to their own interpretation: from choreography, to scenery, costumes and light. The roadshow event around these emerging talents was a great occasion to thank our private donors for there involvement with NDT.

A young, talented photography student from the Royal Academy of Art The Hague has collaborated with the programme Up & Coming Choreographers: Linda Zhengová. With her camera, she followed the choreographers in their creations.
