I dreamt, it was
After their career at NDT, Imre and Marne van Opstal positioned themselves as choreographers with a raw, emotional style. In their new work, they explore how spaces can affect us, either freeing or restricting us. With powerful scenery and their signature movement language, they make us think about the contradiction between greatness and nothingness.

Sharon Eyal and Gai Behar create unique, immersive worlds on stage. In I dreamt, it was, they take you into the universe of SAABA (2021). This work, originally created for GöteborgsOperansDanskompani, is now presented in an updated version by NDT 2. SAABA is full of passion, vulnerability and hypnotic movements, with spherical lighting design and an irresistible groove by Ori Lichtik. It is a powerful example of Eyal's unique style, fusing classical ballet and contemporary dance.
