Significant Moments
Nederlands Dans Theater 2
De talentengroep van Nederlands Dans Theater, NDT2, onthaalt een oude vriend van het gezelschap, Alexander Ekman. Samen met de dansers werkt hij aan een nieuwe creatie voor Significant Moments. Ekman maakte naam met dynamische, energieke stukken waarin humor en groepswerk de boventoon voeren.
Ook ziet u een wereldpremière van Phillip Chbeeb, een nieuw gezicht bij NDT. Deze jonge choreograaf staat bekend om zijn sterke connectie met hiphop. Als laatste danst NDT2 Signing Off van huischoreografen Sol León en Paul Lightfoot, dat in 2003 werd bekroond met de prestigieuze Benois de la Danse.
In 2018 bestaat NDT2 40 jaar. Het tweede gezelschap van NDT werd in 1978 opgericht als springplank voor het eerste gezelschap. Door de decennia heen ontwikkelde NDT 2 zich echter tot een volledig onafhankelijk gezelschap. Gerenommeerde choreografen van over de hele wereld creëren werk speciaal voor de jonge dansers. De focus op ontwikkeling van de artistieke persoonlijkheid van de jonge dansers is onveranderd gebleven. De samenwerking met diverse makers geeft de dansers gelegenheid om zich te verdiepen in verschillende danstalen, technieken en werkmethode en zich deze in korte tijd eigen te maken.
