Junior Company / Het Nationale Ballet
Since its foundation in 2013, the Junior Company of Dutch National Ballet has conquered a prominent place in the international dance world. This season the group will once again be touring Dutch theaters with an extremely varied program that, in addition to well-known classics and contemporary works, also includes world premieres by Wubkje Kuindersma and Joshua Junker.

Ballet Bubbles
Talented young dancers from all over the world audition each year for a highly coveted place in the Junior Company. The group forms a major stepping stone to a successful professional career, demonstrated by the fact that forty percent of Dutch National Ballet now consists of ex-Junior Company dancers, including two principals and five soloists.
INTERNATIONAL FURORE
Besides regularly taking part in productions by the ‘main’ company, the Junior Company dancers win high acclaim for their own touring programmes. This season’s tour includes new works by the young Dutch choreographers Wubkje Kuindersma and Joshua Junker. Kuindersma, who is currently a Young Creative Associate with Dutch National Ballet, previously choreographed Mesmer and Mångata for the juniors. And she created an international furore with her male duet Two and Only for Marijn Rademaker and Timothy van Poucke (a former Junior Company dancer).

DUTCH DEBUT
Joshua Junker, who trained at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague and The Royal Ballet School in London, has been dancing with The Royal Ballet since 2018. In recent years, he has created several promising works for the choreographic project Draft Works, the British equivalent of New Moves. Junker, who was born in Nijmegen, is making his Dutch choreographic debut in Ballet Bubbles. He has already received various prizes, including the Piket Art Award and the Ursula Moreton Choreographic Award.
