More than dance

Contemporary dance for daredevils and connoisseurs

Boundless imagination, storytelling in motion, bird’s eye view from the balcony and hypnotic techno. NDT is so much more than dance!

NDT has been committed to the innovation and development of dance for almost 65 years. What began as a rebel group has become a progressive and internationally renowned production house. NDT presents emerging talent, classics and big names. Always bringing together the best of dance with other art forms.

 

Discover the endless diversity of dance

No dance without music?

Bombastic classical music, soundscapes, a piano on high spider legs? The choreographer decides what you will hear during the performance. Sometimes the dancers make their own beat, sometimes there are recordings that are played and sometimes… there is live music.

A must-see if you like music? Do Not Run Fly is accompanied by The Dutch Ballet Orchestra in The Hague and Amsterdam.

Cinematically fantastic

Swirling flakes on stage, a bird’s eye view from the balcony? Even as a film lover, you can have a blast at the dance theatre. La Ruta is a David Lynch-like ballet that takes you into a setting full of samurai and shadowy bus shelters.

Dance for film fans? Don’t miss From Here Now Far!

Theatrical twist

The dancers tell the choreographer’s story with their bodies. Not only in dance movements, but also through facial expressions. This is how they manage to convey the energy of the piece and express the boundless imagination on stage.
