Into the Hairy
Into the Hairy is a powerful, idiosyncratic work about the strength in vulnerability. The language of movement is hypnotizing, rhythmic, and elusive, the culmination of improvised moves caught and harnessed in a highly sensory and virtuosic form.

Into the Hairy
For this expanded interpretation of Into the Hairy (2023), which had its phenomenal Dutch premiere at Julidans 2023, NDT and Sharon Eyal Dance (S-E-D) have joined forces. Originally created for 8 dancers, this collaboration unites two companies in an extended cast of more than 20 dancers to investigate a new perspective on the unique universe of the work. Together with co-creator Gai Behar and an original score by artist and composer Koreless, Eyal has created an evocative, unsettling and dystopian journey. Dressed in bodysuits designed by Maria Grazia Chiuri for DIOR, that highlight every move and muscle, the dancers exude a detached, otherworldly air and leave the audience entranced.

Into the Hairy tests the limits of contemporary dance by connecting classical dance with the underground club culture.
Reviews
Het Parool
“Eyal, who is known for her unexpected endings, puts on a performance that continues to reverberate in the subconscious mind for some time.”
