NDT 1 tours internationally with Figures in Extinction, our coproduction with Complicité.

Nederlands Dans Theater (NDT) is an international and leading contemporary dance company with two dance groups, NDT 1 and NDT 2. Young, talented dancers at the beginning of their dance career dance with NDT 2 (dancers aged between 17 and 23) and dancers in full bloom at NDT 1 (dancers aged 24 and older). Both companies give performances both at home and abroad. The home base is Amare in The Hague.
As a house for creation, we value experimentation, collaboration, and the development of dance artists. To support this, we have created a series of programmes – each connected to different stages in a dancer and maker’s career. By encouraging, guiding, and promoting new voices and perspectives, we are building a strong future for both NDT and our sector.
Every year, NDT organizes an audition for new NDT 2 dancers. This audition for NDT 2 remains reserved for dancers between the age of 17 and 22. Applicants must have finished or are in the graduation year of a professional classical ballet / professional contemporary dance training program.

At NDT, we have created a series of programmes that offer NDT dancers, freelance makers and guest artists many opportunities to develop in choreography and new work. We nurture choreographers, both inside and outside the company, building new voices and perspectives for NDT and for our sector.
