I dreamt, it was - Nederlands Dans Theater (NDT 2)

Dans & ballet

No Dutch Required

Na The Point Being (2023) With great pleasure, NDT welcomes the new associate choreographers Imre van Opstal & Marne van Opstal at NDT 2 for a world premiere. Since their departure as dancers at NDT and the start of their career as choreographers, the sister and brother have managed to distinguish themselves as outspoken makers with a raw and emotional style. In their new creation they investigate the influence of spaces on our minds: how a space can free us, but also limit us. With pronounced decor and their intriguing movement language, they hold a mirror to us: that we can sometimes feel big and invincible, but at the same time are small and void in relation to the rest of the world. We are proud to continue our creative adventure with them and look forward to all the beautiful things we are going to make together.

The worlds that create Sharon Eyal & Gai Bear on stage are unique, intoxicating and intensely compelling. In i Dreamt, it was you are invited to step into the universe of Saaba (2021) . This beloved work was created for Gothenborgsoperansdanskopani, but NDT 2 now presents it in its own renewed version. Saaba breathes passion and vulnerability, and seduces with hypnotic movements, spherical lighting design and the irresistible groove of composer Ori Lichtik. This work is a powerful example of Eyals genius and quirky voice, with which she merges classical ballet and contemporary dance into something supernatural. Irresistible!
